Dallas Market Center announces the launch of Nearshoring America, a new international expo and support services designed to explore and facilitate nearshoring production services for gift, home furnishings, and fashion accessories companies. Nearshoring America EXPO, to take place at Dallas Market Center from Dec. 10-12, 2024, will connect brands and their representatives with vetted factories and supply chain service providers from Mexico and Latin America, according to a press release.
Exhibitors will include an invitation-only showcase of factories and supply chain providers that have been pre-selected based on their history, operating experience and delivery. In addition, supporting enterprises including sourcing agents, trading companies, shelter companies, and design and production consultants will be represented. The exhibiting companies will be thoroughly vetted to ensure they are legitimately capable of supporting industry importer partners. Expected participants are from Mexico, joined by other countries in Central America and South America such as Brazil and Colombia.
The show floor will feature a uniform presentation of each participant showcasing their production and/or supply chain services capabilities and each exhibitor will be prepared to immediately engage with attendees regarding terms and conditions of product development and production, the release states.
Nearshoring has quickly become an extremely valuable alternative for importers within the U.S. in a range of consumer product categories. A recent Morgan Stanley report noted that “Nearshoring has the potential to boost the growth of Mexican manufacturing exports to the U.S., from $455 billion today to an estimated $609 billion in the next five years.”
A full list of participants will be announced soon.
