Centinela Property Drives Industrial Growth Along the Border and Plans Expansion Into the U.S.

During the Index National Convention, Samantha Almaguer, Commercial Manager at Centinela Property, emphasized the northern border of Mexico as a key growth hub for the manufacturing sector. From her perspective in industrial real estate, she explained that location has become one of the most decisive factors for a company’s success, and that Centinela’s strategy focuses precisely on offering spaces that combine logistics, connectivity, and operational flexibility.

“The key for us is to identify strategic sites where logistics infrastructure and growth opportunities converge,” Almaguer stated. “The border region remains one of the most dynamic areas because it allows us to leverage the best of both sides — Mexico’s talent and competitiveness, and the infrastructure and markets of the United States.”

Strategic Presence and Client-Centered Approach

With operations in Reynosa and Ciudad Juárez, Centinela Property has positioned itself as a trusted partner for global companies seeking to establish or expand their footprint in Mexico. Its portfolio includes world-class industrial facilities designed to meet the specific needs of the automotive, electronics, and medical sectors — all of which continue to grow despite global challenges.

“In addition to offering top-tier facilities, we provide personalized service,” she explained. “We don’t see ourselves as traditional landlords, but as long-term business partners committed to our clients’ success.”

This partnership model has allowed Centinela to establish enduring relationships with national and international companies that value both infrastructure quality and operational proximity.

Reynosa and Ciudad Juárez: Industrial Powerhouses

Within Centinela Property’s development strategy, Reynosa and Ciudad Juárez stand out as vital industrial corridors for attracting new investment. Both cities serve as key logistics and manufacturing hubs, with diversified production bases, skilled workforces, and access to North America’s major trade routes.

“Each location offers unique advantages,” said Almaguer. “Our role is to understand the operational and logistical needs of our clients — whether in the automotive, electronics, or medical sector — and provide facilities that boost their productivity from day one.”

This flexible, client-focused approach has positioned Centinela as a leading industrial developer on the northern border, aligned with nearshoring trends and the relocation of manufacturing operations to Mexico.

Toward Binational Expansion

Almaguer also revealed that Centinela Property is evaluating opportunities to expand into the United States, particularly within the Rio South Texas Region, to further strengthen binational industrial integration.

“Our next step is to grow north of the border,” she said. “We are exploring projects that will allow us to serve companies operating in both countries more efficiently.”

Through this expansion, Centinela aims to become a binational benchmark in industrial real estate development, offering solutions that integrate modern infrastructure, personalized support, and global connectivity.

“Our mission is to continue growing alongside the industry — always as a long-term partner for our clients,” concluded Almaguer.
