Manzanillo, Mexico – A.P. Moller – Maersk (Maersk) has inaugurated its new depot in Manzanillo, Mexico marking a strategic investment of over USD15 million to reinforce the nation’s logistics network. Situated just 5 km from Manzanillo Port—the country’s busiest gateway handling nearly half of Mexico’s containerized cargo—the facility underscores Maersk’s long-term commitment to driving trade growth and supply chain resilience.
Spanning 31,000 square meters, the facility is designed to help reduce first- and last-mile bottlenecks, enabling faster, more efficient cargo flows through this strategic hub. By strengthening operational capacity at the port, Maersk reinforces supply chain resilience and supports Mexico’s growing role in global trade.
Manzanillo is one of Mexico’s most dynamic trade hubs, and this investment underscores our commitment to the country’s long-term growth. By offering integrated services—from shunting to transloading and reefer support—we are helping customers simplify their supply chains and strengthen their competitiveness in both domestic and international markets.
As a key hub for cargo arriving from Asia, Manzanillo connects directly to Mexico’s main industrial regions, including the Bajio and central corridor. Its scale and location make it essential for streamlining supply chains and supporting international trade across the country.
The last mile is one of the most critical—and most challenging—links in today’s supply chains. Delays and costs are not only disrupting operations but also mean missed opportunities for our customers. With this new facility in Manzanillo, we’re creating agility where it matters most—reducing logistics costs, accelerating transit times, and giving businesses better control over their cargo. Ahead of Mexico hosting important global events in 2026, we’re ready to cater to the surge in demand across retail, lifestyle, and technology sectors, ensuring our customers stay ahead of the game.
Facility Highlights:
- Total Area: 31,000 sqm
- Capacity: 6,018 TEUs
- Reefer Plugs: 50
- Repair Capacity: 60 positions
- Cargo Units Handled: Dry cargo, reefer, gensets, and 53’ box
The new depot offers a suite of solutions designed to boost efficiency and reduce costs:
- Shunting services to cut truck idling at port terminals, reducing dwell times and congestion.
- Transloading for dry and refrigerated cargo, enabling transfer to 53’ boxes, flatbeds, or smaller distribution units while maintaining cold-chain integrity.
- Container management to optimize reception and delivery schedules, helping businesses manage warehouse space and inventory flow more effectively.
- Maintenance and repair for dry and reefer equipment, ensuring assets remain in peak condition.
Maersk’s footprint in Mexico spans over 59,000 m² of warehousing in Mexico City and Tijuana, complemented by 250,000 m² of depot capacity in Cuautitlán, Lázaro Cárdenas, and Manzanillo. We also operate air logistics hubs in Mexico City, Monterrey, and Guadalajara. Looking ahead, Maersk plans to expand capabilities in Guadalajara and Monterrey and strengthen landside infrastructure to support Mexico–US cross-border trade.
