Cainiao: committed to investing in Mexico for the long term

One year after launching its logistics network in Mexico, Cainiao continues to establish itself as a disruptive force in last-mile delivery. Local delivery has reached new milestones, with three-day delivery now covering key cities nationwide and the fastest two-day service available in Mexico City and major areas of the State of Mexico.

In addition to speeding up local fulfilment, Cainiao pioneered five-day cross-border delivery from China to Mexico and is the only provider with full coverage across the State of Mexico, greatly enhancing the cross-border shopping experience for Mexican consumers.

Since entering the Mexican market in early 2024, Cainiao has continued to expand its investments in local infrastructure, including hubs, sorting centers, and warehouses. Its logistics network now spans 20 states, up from 18 just two months ago, reflecting its rapid growth and long-term commitment to the local market.

Mexico’s booming manufacturing and e-commerce sectors are pushing logistics providers to scale up capacity and efficiency. To support this growth, Cainiao opened a national sorting center near Mexico City in September last year, further improving delivery speed. Equipped with advanced automation and smart logistics technology such as automated conveyor systems and digitalized tracking solutions, the facility has significantly increased package processing efficiency, ensuring on-time delivery even during peak periods.

“Logistics is undergoing a major transformation as e-commerce growth accelerates, creating both challenges and opportunities in how goods move across borders and within cities,” said Jason He, Cainiao’s Mexico Country Lead. “With our advanced technology and years of experience in e-commerce logistics, we provide delivery services that are built for e-commerce from the ground up—fast, reliable, and optimized for the needs of online platforms and retailers in Mexico. Mexico is a high-potential market with strong growth in e-commerce, and we are committed investing in the region for the long term.”
