For businesses based in the US, Mexico provides a cost-effective option, with all the advantages of a nearshore collaboration. It can even offer European companies a “middle-cost” option (similar to Romania, Moldova, Poland or Ukraine) for their ReactJS or AngularJS needs.

#2: Skill availability

The Mexican market relies on well-versed front-end developers with extensive experience in the latest JavaScript frameworks (Vue.js, React.js, Angular) and flavors (ES6, TypeScript), as well as responsive web development (HTML5, CSS3, Bootstrap).

#3: Ease of communication and cultural similarity

Most Mexican front-end developers included, are proficient English speakers. Tech universities and other training institutions are encouraging student mobility, mainly in the US. The country’s proximity to the US makes this location a fresh water of culturally compatible IT specialists.

A welcoming business ecosystem

Mexico ranks 4th among the Latin American countries in A.T. Kearney’s 2017 Global Services Location Index and occupies the 1st position among its other LATAM counterparts in terms of ease of doing business, according to the 2018 Doing Business Report. Its proximity to the Silicon Valley makes it a destination with high startup potential.

Outsourcing in Mexico

Here are some of the reasons why outsourcing in Mexico is a viable option:

#1: Cost control

Competitive labor costs, lower utility and transportation costs, together with business-friendly taxes and government incentives are determining an increasing number of companies to outsource in Mexico.

#2: Proximity

For US companies, Mexico is situated in an excellent time zone. It offers both physical proximity and time zone similarities, allowing clients to carry out frequent visits and maintain efficient communication with a culturally compatible nearshore team.

For European businesses, this location is an enticing offshore alternative, allowing them to extend their working hours and plunge into a fresh water of skillsets.

#3: Business ecosystem

Mexico fosters an innovation-friendly economy welcoming foreign investment stimulated by government incentives and smooth procedures.

The NAFTA (North American Free Trade Agreement) membership provides an added advantage for American companies. It allows the flow of non-tariffed goods and services, and ensures the protection of intellectual property rights (patent protection), as well as a strong IP regime.
