The state of Jalisco announced a projected investment of US$625 million for the development of more than 800,000 square meters of industrial parks, strengthening its position as one of Mexico’s top investment destinations. The expansion responds to sustained demand for industrial space and the continued momentum of strategic sectors.
Industrial growth drives new logistics infrastructure
The expansion of industrial infrastructure is supported by the state’s recent performance. In 2025, Jalisco recorded a historic absorption of 677,906 square meters, equivalent to nearly US$500 million in investment and representing 25% growth compared with 2024.
This indicator reflects the confidence that both domestic and global companies continue to place in the state.
In addition, the new industrial space currently under development is already pre-leased, ensuring immediate occupancy once construction is completed and confirming the strength of real market demand as well as the fast placement of industrial assets in the state.
Jalisco strengthens its role as an export and logistics hub
Industrial performance is also supported by strong macroeconomic indicators. Jalisco ranked second nationally in foreign direct investment attraction during the fourth quarter of 2025, with strong participation from the electronics and agribusiness sectors.
The state also reached US$52.5765 billion in exports during 2025, making it the leading non-border exporting state in Mexico and allowing it to contribute nearly 9% of the national total, ahead of states such as Sonora and Tamaulipas.
This environment has consolidated Jalisco as a logistics and production hub, supported by its connectivity to the Port of Manzanillo and by its air and land transportation infrastructure, which facilitate integration with markets in North America and Asia.
Industrial growth also reflects a diversified ecosystem that includes sectors such as technology, logistics, and agribusiness, as well as the strengthening of local suppliers, a key factor in building stronger value chains and attracting new investment.
The projected development of new industrial parks points to further consolidation of the state as a strategic platform for business relocation, at a time when Mexico continues to maintain competitive advantages in manufacturing and foreign trade.
