Defining Tracks for 2024

The Automotive Logistics & Supply Chain Mexico Conference 2024 featured expanded sessions, workshops and speakers in these critical areas:

Delivering nearshoring's potential

Mexico’s logistics network must rapidly scale to keep pace with demand driven by regionalisation and nearshoring trends and adapt transport modes, warehousing, inventory levels and partnerships to serve localised supply chains.

Maximising Mexico's talent

Mexico’s greatest strength lies in its creative and industrious workforce, and empowering employees, upskilling for the digital age, retaining knowledge and high-performers, and creating attractive and competitive pathways for the next generation of talent is critical for supply chain excellence.

Cross-border excellence

Mexico’s borders, international gateways and cross-border logistics services require critical upgrades, investments in storage, fleets, technology and partnerships, alongside efficient and reliable customs processing and systems.

Future focus

To remain globally competitive, Mexico’s automotive leaders must plan for the new era of electric vehicle production and distribution, carbon-free supply chains and connected mobility solutions.

Mexico 4.0

Digital tools, cutting-edge software and data analytics are transforming Mexico’s logistics, optimising physical flows, streamlining decision-making, automating processes and improving visibility.

Hyper-competitive logistics

North America's complex geopolitical and economic landscape, reshoring investments and new market players are driving a hyper-competitive market where demand for logistics capacity, services and talent far outstrips supply, requiring manufacturers to innovate, improve forecasting and planning, and redefine partnerships to maintain supply chain excellence.
