What's Bringing
you to Mexico?

"I'm setting up a manufacturing or business operation in Mexico"  We handle it—so you can build on solid foundation.

Shelter Services
LAUNCH IN MEXICO WITH AN OPERATIONAL PARTNER
Under Prodensa's shelter model, your company manufactures in Mexico while we hold the legal entity, IMMEX permit, employer registration, and all regulatory obligations. You retain complete control over production, quality, and IP. 
 
We manage the entire startup process in parallel, through our multi-disciplinary team: site selection, IMMEX program registration, facility acquisition or build-to-suit, equipment import logistics, workforce recruitment and training, and compliance activation. A dedicated project manager coordinates all workstreams against your launch date.
 
Over +20 individual operations currently run under our shelter across Mexico's major industrial corridors.

IMMEX Program Management
FULL-LIFECYCLE IMMEX MANAGEMENT: FROM PERMIT TO AUDIT DEFENSE

Whether you're applying for a new IMMEX permit or managing an existing program, Prodensa handles everything: application and approval, program modifications as your operation evolves, annual certification renewals, and direct liaison with the Secretaría de Economía.

Beyond the permit, we manage VAT and IEPS certification, Annex 24 temporary import tracking, customs broker coordination, duty deferral optimization, and audit preparation. When the SAT or customs authorities audit your operation, everything is already documented, reconciled, and defensible — because we built the compliance framework from day one.

Workforce Management Programs
HIRE & MANAGE EMPLOYEES IN MEXICO WITHOUT THE COMPLEXITY
Prodensa's Employer of Record service lets you hire in Mexico without establishing your own legal entity. We become the legal employer — handling payroll, tax withholding, social security (IMSS), housing fund (INFONAVIT), retirement contributions (AFORE), and all statutory benefits. Your team reports to you; we handle the legal and administrative complexity behind the scenes.

For recruiting, our regional teams operate in 20+ cities — from Monterrey's engineering talent to Tijuana's electronics expertise to Querétaro's aerospace workforce. We handle job profiling, sourcing, screening, skills assessment, salary benchmarking, and onboarding. For large-scale ramp-ups, we recruit and onboard hundreds of production operators within weeks using our regional networks.

Trade Advisory
USMCA STRATEGY & RULES OR ORIGIN FROM PEOPLE WHO SHAPED THE POLICY

We conduct product-level rules of origin analysis, determine whether your supply chain qualifies for USMCA preferential treatment, identify changes needed to meet thresholds, and prepare certification of origin for every qualifying shipment. Beyond compliance, we monitor compliance, and support tariff engineering strategies with strategic sourcing in Mexico. 

When new tariffs are announced, enforcement priorities shift, or political developments threaten supply chain stability, our team provides analysis and actionable recommendations before the disruption reaches your operation.

TESTIMONIALS

"We needed a well-informed partner to provide us guidance. We found that partner in Prodensa, who proved themselves to be an indispensable part of our project team as we navigated through dozens of cities and countless working sessions to make sense of it all. Within those working sessions with Prodensa, we defined our criteria for success."
1630533422151
VP / General ManagerREXNORD AEROSPACE
"I thank Prodensa for integrally supporting this strategic expansion for Balluff Manufacturing in the Bajío Region of Mexico. Our new plan in Aguascalientes. Their support, especially in the area of talent acquisition and administration, will provide us the skills needed to meet our goals of carbon reduction."
1581149734262
CEOBALLUFF
“We partnered with Prodensa as our soft-landing company. Their support in HR, Real Estate, compliance, construction was essential for us. And through Prodensa we also found our stand-alone building in Santa Caterina (5,000 m2) that really fits our needs... And also via Prodensa, we set up our own legal entity in Mexico... It's been very demanding, but very rewarding journey and its definitely a foundation for long-term growth."
1639688878205
CEOZINKTEKNIK
“Prodensa helped us navigate the maquiladora structure that Quasar acquired, translating a complex regulatory framework into a clear strategy for our new investment. Their team guided us through every step with expertise and collaboration, helping us build an actionable plan aligned with our long-term goals. We look forward to continuing and expanding this relationship.”
