Mexico Contract Manufacturing – The Benefits

In 2018, Mexico imported $371.9 billion worth of goods into the U.S. Manufacturing imports included vehicle components; agricultural products; medical instruments; and much more. Each year, more companies choose contract manufacturing in Mexico as the solution to their supply chain needs. Despite this growth, you may wonder if moving your operations to a new country is worth the investment. Before we can determine if contract manufacturing in Mexico is the best solution for your company’s needs, it is important to look at the competition.  

The Elephant in the Room

Mexico Contract Manufacturing - Mexico Versus ChinaWe cannot talk about contract manufacturing in Mexico without addressing the elephant in the room — China. In 1973, the United States and China began a lucrative contract manufacturing trade arrangement that lasted for over forty years. In 2018, the U.S. took steps to change its contract. The U.S. placed 25% tariffs on $50 billion worth of Chinese imports. These hefty tariffs signaled the start of a “trade war” between China and the U.S. Companies on both sides of the divide continue to struggle under the tariffs. The challenge now facing North American-based companies is how to find high-quality, low-cost alternatives to their current contract manufacturing partners. To answer those concerns, here are 10 benefits to moving your contract manufacturing operations to Mexico.

Top 10 Benefits to Contract Manufacturing in Mexico

  • Lower Labor Costs
  • Reduced Shipping Costs
  • Fewer Delays Through U.S. Ports of Entry
  • Other Financial Perks 
  • Mexico Is a Safe Place to Work
  • Superior Production Quality
  • Contract Manufacturing Shelter Companies
  • Safe Working Conditions
  • Outsourcing Creates U.S. Jobs
  • Lower Travel Expenses

Mexico Contract Manufacturing Benefit #1: Lower Labor Costs

Companies who move their contract manufacturing operations to Mexico have discovered significant labor cost savings. Studies suggest that labor expenses in Mexico are 40-50% lower than in the U.S. Even skilled laborers earn less in Mexico because the cost of living is so much lower than in America. In addition to initial savings, as wages in Mexico grow, evidence shows that productivity also increases. Companies who choose to enter into a contract manufacturing arrangement in Mexico keep labor expenses low while building revenue.

Benefit #2: Reduced Shipping Costs

Another benefit to contract manufacturing in Mexico is the proximity. As a contract manufacturer, lower shipping fees mean that both the company’s cash flow and its margins are protected. Mexico manufacturing means that the savings can go to your customers or your pocketbook. 

Benefit #3: Fewer Delays Through U. S. Ports of Entry

Nothing is worse than having an item stuck in Customs, especially if customers do not understand that some things are out of a company’s control. The logistics of transporting items through the Mexican ports are less complicated than other contract manufacturing options. Once again, this benefit ensures that not only does your supply chain flow smoothly, but your customers stay happy.

Benefit #4: Other Financial Perks

Contract manufacturers know that Mexico offers better exchange rates than other countries. Also, Mexico’s facilities try to use natural gas instead of electricity. Both measures reduce operational expenses.

Benefit #5: Mexico is a Safe Place to Work

The World Economic Forum recently released its annual crime report. The forum “measures the extent to which a country exposes tourists and businesses to security risks mainly related to serious harm to people (violence and terrorism).” According to this report, Mexico (53.31) is currently ranked near the U.S (47.7). Headlines about border violence are unsettling, but these reports are incomplete. The violence that dominates the headlines revolves around a few large cities. Legitimate businesses have never been targets of this violence. Manufacturing in Mexico, like other places, depends on creating a security-conscious environment. Those tools include surveillance cameras, gated entry points, and security personnel. 

Benefit #6: Superior Production Quality

For years, Mexico’s reputation for superior manufacturing has made it an industry leader. Mexico is now the leading producer of electronics due in part to its access to skilled labor. These positions are often difficult to fill in North American countries. 

By comparison, China often experiences quality issues with its products. The logistics associated with returning an item are often prohibitive and result in write-offs. These issues usually include shipping fees, distance, time involved, and language barriers.

Mexico Contract Manufacturing Benefit #7: Contract Manufacturing Shelter Companies

Foreign companies rely on contract manufacturing shelter companies to guide them through the transition. A shelter company focuses on the administrative and legal logistics of a business. At the same time, the foreign company focuses on its core goal: manufacturing. The production value of the product remains high while decreasing the operating costs. 

For over 50 years, Mexico’s shelter services have provided their global partners with protection from liability. This protection means that foreign companies are not vulnerable to Mexico’s legal system or taxation practices. Shelter companies simplify the process of moving an operation to Mexico. Providing a turnkey, start-up approach to manufacturing is only one of the perks. Under a shelter company, you also maintain all intellectual property rights for your products and services.

Mexico Contract Manufacturing Benefit #8: Safe Working Conditions

Conditions in Mexico manufacturing have improved over the years. Contract manufacturing companies in Mexico know they must meet global standards. They provide benefits for their employees, including medical, family leave, paid sick time. Labor unions advocate for safe working conditions and fair wages. Employee turnover is lower because they want to take advantage of the perks provided by reputable manufacturing partners in Mexico. 

Mexico Contract Manufacturing Benefit #9: Outsourcing Creates U.S. Jobs

Recent headlines have capitalized on the fear that moving manufacturing companies out of the U.S. is costing U.S jobs. Indeed, millions of U.S manufacturing jobs move overseas each year, but that isn’t the whole story. 

U.S manufacturers often choose to outsource lower-level work to Mexico or China. The reduction in costs means that there is more room in their budgets for skilled U.S-based workers. In some cases, lower-level jobs can also be challenging to fill in the U.S because of the higher cost of living in that country. In that event, manufactures find it necessary to outsource parts of their business.

Mexico Contract Manufacturing Benefit #10: Lower Travel Expenses

Mexico’s proximity to the U.S means you will reduce the cost of lengthy international travel. Your executives will be able to spend more time in their offices. When you can’t be on-site, a knowledgeable workforce will provide clear information.

By comparison, China’s distance can make it difficult to resolve issues. The time and expense involved can cut into the cost-savings you were hoping to achieve. Steep differences between time zones and languages can produce added expensive manufacturing delays.

Mexico vs China Manufacturing

Mexico vs China ManufacturingMexico is the United States’ second-largest supplier of imported goods. In 2018, Mexico imported $371.9 billion worth of goods into the U.S. Manufacturing imports included vehicle components, agricultural products, medical instruments, and much more.

In 2019, the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) ended. The transition to the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA) presented manufacturers with new opportunities. The new trade agreement also raises many questions.

Should manufacturers still pursue manufacturing partnerships in Mexico? Is an overseas partner like China a better fit? In the decision between Mexico vs. China, who can provide the best value and support? BF&S Manufacturing understands these concerns. Our team knows that the decision to move your operations to a new country is not an easy one. We want to take the anxiety and guesswork out of the decision-making process. Our goal is to help you see the advantage in choosing to manufacture products in Mexico.

The best way to do this is to debunk seven common misconceptions about moving your company to Mexico.

Mexico vs China Manufacturing: Mexico Is More Expensive than China True or False?

False. For decades, China represented the most cost-effective way to manufacture goods. The low labor costs meant that companies could reap a 30-80% cost reduction in operating costs. Over the last decade, China’s wages and overseas shipping costs have increased. This increase has made labor costs in China comparable to labor costs in the United States.

In 2018, the United States took steps to place 25% tariffs on $50 billion worth of Chinese imports. These heavy tariffs signaled the start of a “trade war” between China and the United States. Companies on both sides of the divide continue to struggle under the expense.

The answer is clear. It is now less extensive to manufacture goods in Mexico. There are several components that contributed to this shift.

First, Mexico’s labor costs are 40-50% lower than in the U.S. Even skilled laborers earn less in Mexico. As wages in Mexico grow, evidence shows that productivity also increases. This ratio means companies can continue to keep loaded labor rates low while building revenue.

Another benefit to manufacturing in Mexico is the proximity between the two countries. Lower shipping costs mean companies do not have to pass the expense onto their customers. Also, the reduction in delivery times means companies can turn items faster. Both advantages keep the cost of doing business reasonable for all involved.

Mexico vs China Manufacturing: Mexico Isn’t a Safe Place to Do Business – True or False?

False. The World Economic Forum recently released its annual crime report. The forum “measures the extent to which a country exposes tourists and businesses to security risks mainly related to serious harm to people (violence and terrorism).” According to this report, Mexico (53.31) is currently ranked near the U.S. (47.7).

Headlines about border violence are unsettling, but these reports are incomplete. The violence that dominates the headlines revolves around a few large cities. Gang violence is a problem in many parts of the world. Legitimate businesses have never been targets of this violence.

Here in Agua Prieta, BF&S Manufacturing has not experienced any of the violence of other border towns. Our population of 100,000 prides itself on being a quiet, family-oriented community. We want to keep it that way.

Mexico vs China Manufacturing: The Production Quality in Mexico is Poorer than in China – True or False?

False. For years, Mexico’s reputation for quality manufacturing has made it an industry leader. Mexico is a hub for aerospace, automotive, and medical device manufacturing.

AS-9100D-Certified for Aerospace ManufacturingBF&S Manufacturing maintains an AS-9100D certification. This certification qualifies us to work on aerospace projects. To maintain our AS-9100D accreditation, we are required to maintain the highest standards in manufacturing. We meet those standards in both the materials we use and the assembly of the finished product. Our success depends on your success. We demand excellence of ourselves, so in turn, we can provide the best to our foreign partners.

By comparison, China often experiences quality issues with its products. The logistics associated with returning an item are often prohibitive and can result in write-offs. Some of the costly problems associated with China’s poor-quality control practices include shipping costs, manufacturing delays, time consumption, and limited access to English-speaking advocates at the China-based facility.

Mexico vs China Manufacturing: Mexico Is More Complicated than in China True or False?

False. Over the years, Mexico has proven to be a more reliable and transparent manufacturing partner than China. Foreign companies rely on Mexico for several reasons, including the ones listed below.

Shelter Companies: For over 50 years, Mexico’s shelter services have simplified the process of moving a foreign company’s operations to Mexico. Providing a turnkey, start-up approach to manufacturing is only one of the benefits. Under a shelter company, you maintain all intellectual property rights, and you are shielded from liability. This protection means that foreign companies are not vulnerable to Mexico’s legal system. In other words, a shelter company focuses on the administrative and legal logistics of a business, while a foreign company focuses on its core goal: manufacturing. The production value of the product remains high while decreasing the operating costs.

Sub-Contracting: Using a shelter company in Mexico is not a foreign company’s only option. Mexico provides excellent sub-contracting opportunities as well. By utilizing Mexico’s success as a sub-contractor, you can reap the benefits of Mexico’s skilled labor force while completing the bulk of the project in the United States. For example, BF&S Manufacturing’s quality certifications make us an ideal partner for sub-contracting products like wire harnesses and small electric motors.

Cultural Paradigm: When considering moving your operations to Mexico, it is essential to note that BF&S Manufacturing is a United States-based company. All contracts are made with a U.S. company and not with a foreign entity. Your legal options fall under U.S. law. We also use American-based management practices in all our Mexican-based manufacturing facilities. These standards serve as a familiar benchmark for U.S. executives and allow for a smooth transition from the United States to BF&S’s location in Mexico. BF&S Manufacturing’s status as one of the few manufacturers in Mexico that can offer bother sub-contracting and shelter company support makes us a great choice for your manufacturing needs.

Time and Location: Another crucial reason manufacturing in Mexico is less complicated than in China is time and distance. Mexico is in the same time zone as the United States. When you move your company’s operations to Mexico, you can reach one of the English-speaking management team members during your U.S.-based business hours. If you need to be on-site in a hurry, depending on the location of the U.S. office, an employee based in the U.S. can be on-site at the Mexico facility the same day.

Bilingual Partners: An unbeatable benefit to manufacturing in Mexico is that the majority of the engineers and managers at BF&S Manufacturing are bilingual. When you need to speak to someone at your manufacturing facility in Mexico, you can be assured that your needs are understood without requiring a translator. 

The Trouble with China

By comparison, the complexities of moving a manufacturing business overseas can be cumbersome and expensive. Manufactures are vulnerable to Chinese laws and taxation practices. Without a shelter company, manufactures have few allies in China if something goes wrong. In addition to the absence of legal protection, China utilizes its own management standards that are vastly different from the quality standards U.S.-based companies are accustomed to using. If you are considering moving your manufacturing operations to China, it is crucial that you understand that China’s worldview is fundamentally different from Western cultures. In China, the customer (you) isn’t always right. The lack of cohesiveness between the two mindsets can result in a breakdown of you getting your needs met.

Another setback is that Chinese manufacturing facilities do not hire multiple English-speaking employees. There is usually one translator available to work with your company. When you need to know what is happening at your plant or there is a production issue, you are limited to receiving information through a single source. To speak to the translator, you must be willing to work during Chinese business hours, and it can be challenging to convey your customers’ needs in a relevant way to your Chinese partners.

Also, it’s essential not to overlook the time difference between the two countries. For example, the 15-hour time difference between Arizona, USA and Wuhan, China could result in costly delays and losses for your company and the customers you wish to serve.

Once your product is prepared to ship from China, additional complications, such as what recently happened in the Suez Canal, are a constant threat. By comparison, the logistics of transporting items through Mexican ports of entry are less complex and historically have not been plagued with the type of delays China experiences.

Mexico vs China Manufacturing: Facilities and Working Conditions Are Worse in Mexico True or False?

False. Conditions in Mexico manufacturing facilities are comparable or better than conditions in the United States. Foreign manufacturing companies in Mexico know they must meet global standards. As a U.S.-based company, BF&S Manufacturing prides itself on caring for our employees by offering great benefits and safe working conditions.

BF&S Manufacturing Benefits PackageBF&S Manufacturing Benefits Package:

  • Full Medical Insurance Coverage
  • Paid Sick Leave
  • Paid Vacations
  • Family & Medical Leave
  • Housing Allowance
  • Retirement Benefits (401(k) Plans)
  • Performance Bonuses
  • Christmas (End-of-Year) Bonuses
  • Profit-Sharing
  • Employee Match-Saving Programs

By contrast, China is one of the top 10 worst countries for workers’ rights. News reports out of China continue to decry China’s slave-labor mentality. Even if their employees receive a 40-hour workweek, conditions can be brutal. Reports of nightmarish conditions, abuse, and sub-par benefits are not uncommon.

In the end, manufacturers need to examine the risk to their reputation in the global community. Labor conditions are often at the top of watchdog organizations’ hit list. Sacrificing human rights for labor costs could be detrimental in the long run.

Mexico vs China vs USA: Outsourcing Is Stealing American Jobs True or False?

False. Recent headlines have capitalized on the fear that moving operations out of the U.S. is costing U.S. jobs. It is true that millions of U.S. manufacturing jobs move to Mexico and China each year, but that isn’t the whole story.

United States manufacturers often choose to outsource lower-level work to Mexico or China. The cost-savings this represents makes the manufacture more competitive. The reduction in costs means that there is more room in their budgets for skilled U.S.-based workers. In some cases, lower-level jobs can also be difficult to fill in the U.S. because of a shortage of available workers. Even during economic downturns in the United States., U.S.-based employees, in general, have proven that they are not interested in filling lower-level or “menial” positions. In that event, manufactures find it necessary to outsource some of their manufacturing needs.

This doesn’t mean that only low-level jobs are moving to Mexico. Mexico’s access to a skilled workforce makes them a coveted destination for manufacturing.

Mexico vs China: Solving Manufacturing Problems in Mexico Is More Difficult than in China True or False?

False. Mexico’s proximity to the U.S. means traveling back and forth is cheaper and faster. Mexico is in the same time zone as the United States. When you want to see things for yourself, you can be on-site the same day, and you won’t have to worry about costly international travel. The time savings will allow your executives to spend more time in their offices and lower your operational expenses. When you can’t be on-site, your knowledgeable and bilingual management team will provide clear information. You will no longer have to wait for a translator or stay up all night to speak to someone in a different time zone.

By comparison, China’s distance can make it almost impossible to resolve issues. The time and expense involved can cut into the cost savings you were hoping to achieve. Steep differences between time zones and access to English-speaking partners in China can produce expensive manufacturing delays, resulting in a loss of consumer confidence in your company.

When a problem needs to be solved, you deserve the assurance that you are working with a manufacturing partner who understands your values and customers. Moving your manufacturing operations to Mexico will provide that assurance.

Christmas Delivery

US Based Manufacturing Company Brings Warmth to Those in Need in Hermosillo by Donating Blankets 

On December 21, BF&S Manufacturing donated 170 blankets to the State Capital of Hermosillo, Sonora (Mexico) to aid those in need during this cold winter season. 

CEO Carlos Fernandez spent over a year developing the concept for Blankets for Borders – a fly in event that would bring together pilots from all over in order to donate blankets for those in need. The event would require participants to donate a blanket or coat and, in return, they would receive a free pancake breakfast at their destination. It was a way to marry his love of aviation with philanthropy. The pandemic had the unfortunate impact of canceling this event, but the need was still there. 

“I made a promise and didn’t want COVID to get in the way of that promise.” – Carlos Fernandez

Fernandez knows and understands how great the need is in these communities. BF&S Manufacturing has operations in Agua Prieta, and Cumpas, Mexico. His company employs over 500 high-skilled employees and he travels often between the United States and Mexico. He has witnessed, firsthand, the devastation of the pandemic. For those in need, the cold is painful; but for those living on the streets, it can be deadly. 

“It gets incredibly cold in Hermosillo and these freezing temperatures can be very dangerous for those who are homeless or living in poverty. This is a very real need during this time.” – Carlos Fernandez

Fernandez is keeping his promise during these challenging times by donating 170 blankets to those in need. BF&S Manufacturing specializes in medical and aerospace manufacturing and is committed to making the communities in which they operate a better place to work and live.  The SEDESON (Secretario de Desarrollo Social del Estado de Sonora) will be responsible for distributing the blankets to ensure they go to individuals and families who are struggling.

American-Based Near Shore Manufacturing Company Donates Life-Saving Medical Supplies to a Hospital in Moctezuma, Sonora

 

https://youtu.be/C81N9qqGej8

On October 30, 2020, American-Based Aerospace and Medical near-shore manufacturer BF&S Manufacturing (MEFASA), donated life-saving medical supplies to Hospital Comunitario Moctezuma. The Moctezuma municipality welcomed this donation by hosting an event at the University de la Sierra in order to thank CEO Carlos Fernandez for his company’s generous donation. The Mayor of Moctezuma, Adriana Sepulveda Rodriguez, was in attendance and publicly thanked Fernandez. 

“MEFASA is part of the community and we are always interested in supporting not just the people of MEFASA, but people of all of the municipalities, to make them better, and to help everyone have a better life.” – Carlos Fernandez, CEO BF&S Manufacturing.

Moctezuma is 20 miles south of BF&S’ (MEFASA) manufacturing operation in Cumpas, and it is where the COVID-response hospital for the region is located. Fernandez worked with doctors in order to understand how best to help this hospital care for those suffering from COVID-19. This donation included a blood monitor that is used with the respirator in order to monitor the patient. This expensive piece of equipment is a critical, life-saving element in the battle against COVID.

“Thank you and God bless all of you! This is a great help to our community and you are welcome any time!”  – Adriana Sepulveda Rodriguez, Mayor of Moctezuma.

In addition to providing this needed equipment, Fernandez invited Dr. Juan Manuel Romero Trejo from Hospital Comunitario Moctezuma in order to ensure proper safety protocols were being met in order to keep all of his employees safe. Dr. Trejo was incredibly grateful for this opportunity, and assured Fernandez they were indeed protecting their employees. 

“I am at peace because the company, the owners of the company are indeed worried about the safety of their employees” – Dr. Juan Manuel Romero Trejo

BF&S Manufacturing has been a part of the Cumpas and Moctezuma community for decades. They currently employ 500 skilled laborers and have corporate offices and a warehouse located in Arizona (USA); manufacturing operations are in Agua Prieta, Sonora (Mexico) and Cumpas, Sonora (Mexico). They are dedicated to the communities in which they work and make a commitment to these communities to care for their employees, and improve the lives of everyone.

American-Based Aerospace Manufacturer Adds 225 More Jobs to a Local Community

Companies Can Help Boost Local Economies as Well as Their Bottom Line by Outsourcing to Mexico

On February 18, 2020, a well-established, American-based contract aerospace manufacturing company known as BF&S Manufacturing broke ground to expand operations in the small town of Cumpas, Mexico.

Cumpas and the surrounding area is home to 20,000 people and is just south of the Arizona/Mexico border by 100 miles. BF&S Manufacturing has been a fixture in this community for over 20 years, employing over 200 employees currently in high-skilled positions. This new expansion, slated to open in early 2021, will add 225 jobs to their current operation.

For CEO Carlos Fernandez, this expansion is an exciting opportunity to fill a growing need for companies who are looking for a qualified, near-shore manufacturer with industry experience and the certifications necessary to ensure quality control for their clients. Fernandez credits their growth with their extreme level of precision and skill, as well as a mass shift as companies seek to move their operations out of China as a result of rising tariffs, duties, a concerning lack of regulations, a lack of quality control, and complications with transportation and shipping. 

Because BF&S Manufacturing works primarily in aerospace and medical device industries, they are held to the highest standard and meet all necessary certifications within their field. Their employees are highly skilled and their quality control is exceptional. BF&S adheres to the same high standards as manufacturers in the USA, Canada, Europe, and other First World countries. By contrast, products manufactured in China face minimal regulations and quality control.

“If something we manufacture fails, the ramifications of that failure are huge. We have zero tolerance for error in our industry. Not every factory or company has that same standard; companies who work with sub-par manufacturers need to understand that risk” – Carlos Fernandez, CEO BF&S Manufacturing

The town of Cumpas is overwhelmingly supportive of this expansion, excited to have such a large increase in job opportunities that will serve their community throughout this difficult crisis in which so many have lost their jobs and livelihood. BF&S is a reputable company people are proud to work for because they are treated as valued team members who do important work that benefits everyone.

“When I was young, people were proud to work for GM and Ford. It was a generational pride that was passed on. BF&S Manufacturing is about more than making money and serving companies; for over 30 years our employees have been treated with dignity, and as part of a team.” – Carlos Fernandez, CEO BF&S Manufacturing

BF&S Manufacturing was founded in 1988 by Carlos’ father, Bob, an immigrant to the United States from Monterrey, Mexico. They currently employ 500 skilled laborers; this expansion will add 225 employees to their company, and allow for continued growth. BF&S Manufacturing corporate offices and warehouse are located in Arizona (USA); manufacturing operations are in Agua Prieta, Sonora (Mexico) and Cumpas, Sonora (Mexico).
