Finsa advances with expansions and acquisitions in the country

14 de Junio de 2024

Despite the uncertain situation, Finsa maintains a solid pace of expansion, with plans to build new industrial parks, expand existing ones, and acquire real estate portfolios, according to Sergio Argüelles, the company's president .

Although the market has shown some slowdown after the extraordinary years it experienced between 2021 and 2023, occupancy at the industrial parks managed by Finsa remains at very high levels, with 96% occupancy .

“Our country's resilience is reflected in our export figures and our tariff position. We have a strategic location, a highly skilled and competitive workforce, and great potential for continued growth. While we must be cautious when making decisions, we are very optimistic about the future and expect the second wave of nearshoring in the short term,” Argüelles stated.

New developments and expansions

In recent months, Finsa has announced two new parks in Nuevo León , located in Apodaca and Escobedo. Additionally, three more expansions are planned in other regions of the country , as well as three new developments in central and northern Mexico.

“A great example of this confidence is the development of new parks, which reflect our strategy of growth and consolidation in key markets for the industry,” Argüelles commented.

Acquisition strategy

In June 2025, Finsa launched a strategy to acquire stabilized industrial properties , in collaboration with BBVA, taking advantage of the sector's consolidation and the rise of nearshoring.

"To date, we have completed two acquisitions, one in Nuevo León and another in Aguascalientes, and we have a pipeline of 450,000 square meters of acquisitions planned for this year. This strengthens our presence in strategic markets and allows us to continue offering top-level industrial solutions," said Argüelles.

Ensuring electricity supply: a strategic axis

Tariff uncertainty and the revision of the USMCA pose additional challenges, such as the availability and quality of electricity supply for industrial parks. Finsa has decided to develop its own infrastructure , including high-voltage substations and medium- and high-voltage lines, with permits in process for five substations in different parts of the country .

"We've made electrical infrastructure a strategic pillar to guarantee a reliable supply and quality energy to our customers. This strengthens the competitiveness of our plants and ensures that industrial operations are not affected," Argüelles explained.

Prospects for the future

Finsa currently has more than 100 active projects with positive contract closing prospects, 30% of which are located in Nuevo León . The company is confident that Mexico will continue to be a key trading partner for the United States, consolidating industrial integration and attracting new investment in the country.
