Latin America Logistics Industry Trends & Growth Drivers:

Near-Shoring Warehouse Gold-Rush: $4 bn Flows into Mexico’s Hinterland

USMCA tariff certainty is turning central Mexico into a land of mega-sheds. The Secretariat of Economy reports 180 new 3PL warehouses currently under construction in Nuevo León and Guanajuato - a record. Prologis alone delivered 2.1 million m² in Monterrey during July 2025 and pre-leased 90% of the space to Tesla and Amazon within 60 days. Smaller players are chasing the same wave: Mexican start-up Caxxor broke ground on a 300,000 m² rail-linked park in Silao in August 2025, betting on automotive component flows. Inter-American Development Bank data show intra-regional exports up 1.3% year-on-year, and every extra percentage point adds an estimated 800,000 m² of warehouse demand. Even traditional ports are pivoting; the Port of Veracruz announced a $350 m inland dry-port cluster in July 2025 to capture near-shoring overflow.

Digital Freight Matching Erases Empty-Truck Miles

Brazilian cloud platform Kestraa raised an extra $15 million in Series B funding in August 2025 to scale its AI freight-matching engine. The software now connects 42,000 daily loads across Mercosur, slashing average empty-backhaul distance by 220 km per truck. Maersk’s Latin America update shows pilot customers cut logistics costs by 8% and CO₂ emissions by 11% in the first quarter of deployment. Colombia’s government joined the party in June 2025, subsidising 5,000 small carriers to join digital platforms; early data reveal a 15% drop in spot-market volatility.

Green Bonds Power Electric Truck Fleets

Chile’s Ministry of Transport issued $500 m in sovereign green bonds in June 2025, earmarked for 8,000 electric trucks. DHL Express Chile will deploy 600 Volvo FM Electric units on Santiago-Valparaíso corridors by December 2025, eliminating 2.3 million litres of diesel annually. Meanwhile, Brazil’s BNDES approved $120 m in low-interest loans for e-truck leasing in August 2025; early adopters include Ambev and Carrefour, signalling mass-market pull. Costa Rica-labelled “most lucrative” segment by analysts, pledged to electrify 30 % of its freight fleet by 2027, adding urgency to OEM production schedules.
