Maquilaplex
Your U.S. Gateway to the Maquiladora Supply Chain
Maquilaplex by Navco Logistics helps foreign suppliers serve maquiladoras (Mexican manufacturers) through U.S. bonded warehousing, in-bond programs, and Vendor-Managed Inventory — ensuring compliant, duty-free, cross-border fulfillment.
Connecting global suppliers to Mexican manufacturers with compliant, duty-free logistics solutions.
Who are we
Maquilaplex is a logistics platform operated by Navco Logistics that helps foreign suppliers serve their Mexican maquiladora customers through a single, U.S.-based point of contact.
We act as the Importer of Record (IOR) in the United States, managing every Customs, transportation, and fulfillment detail between the U.S. and Mexico — ensuring your products move smoothly, compliantly, and efficiently.
We handle:
- U.S. & Mexican Customs compliance
- Importer of Record services
- Cross-border transportation
- Warehousing and bonded storage
- Fulfillment and distribution to maquiladoras
- Vendor Managed Inventory (VMI) programs for just-in-time delivery
- Optional domestic sales into the U.S. market
Why it matters
Most maquiladora suppliers face challenges shipping directly from overseas — complex paperwork, tariff exposure, and long lead times.
Maquilaplex eliminates those barriers by creating a North American logistics hub that keeps your goods close to your customers while minimizing duty costs and transit times.
Key Benefits:
- Duty-free deliveries to maquiladoras through in-bond or bonded warehouse programs
- Faster delivery times with U.S.-based inventory, Vendor-Managed Inventory
- Complete visibility and control of your cross-border supply chain
- Full CBP and SAT compliance under 19 CFR and 15 CFR regulations
Maquilaplex Advantages
Through our In-Bond Fulfillment Program, foreign suppliers can store and fulfill orders from a bonded warehouse without paying duties until goods are:
- Released into U.S. commerce (if sold domestically), or
- Exported to Mexican maquiladoras (duty-free).
This structure eliminates U.S. duty exposure entirely for goods destined for maquiladoras while keeping compliance seamless. By combining bonded storage with a Vendor-Managed Inventory (VMI) model, suppliers can:
- Maintain stock closer to maquiladora production sites,
- Support just-in-time (JIT) manufacturing schedules, and
- Deliver components exactly when needed — without incurring duty or long lead times.
For suppliers expanding beyond maquiladora customers, Maquilaplex also serves as a U.S. distribution base, enabling compliant domestic sales with minimal setup cost.
