Mercado Libre Opens Largest Cross-Dock Logistics Center in Latin America to Boost E-commerce in Mexico

On February 6, Argentine e-commerce platform Mercado Libre officially launched its largest Cross-Dock logistics center in Latin America in the State of Mexico. Located in Cuautitlán Izcalli, the facility spans over 80,000 square meters and currently handles 600,000 packages daily. By 2026, the center is expected to gradually increase its automation capabilities and expand its capacity in phases. This project is part of Mercado Libre's $657 million investment plan in Mexico, with $140 million allocated solely to the State of Mexico by 2025, which is projected to create around 1,000 local jobs. The launch of this logistics hub will significantly improve delivery efficiency, support small and medium-sized enterprises in expanding their e-commerce operations, and further strengthen Mercado Libre's competitiveness in the Latin American market.
