Why a Rapid shelter operation?
We work with our clients to create the most efficient environment for manufacturing in Mexico without a need for the client to create a new foreign entity. Utilizing Rapid's existing Mexican presence and maquiladora framework, we can offer a very efficient start up and longer term support services that in the end will reduce labor costs and allow you the client, to focus on growing your business. Our shelter programs are fair and easy to understand. Rapid is very hands on all aspects of manufacturing with US and Mexican bilingual staff. We’re conveniently located such that distribution east or west is very efficient and our clients can travel to our facilities within a 1/2 day from almost anywhere in the US.
Why Mexico and not China ?
Mexico is an enormous trading partner and resource to the US. The costs of doing business in China and/or Asia continues rise with increasing labor costs, disappearing Chinese government subsidies on material and power, no more VAT rebates and skyrocketing freight costs from the rising costs of oil. Our border location provides a significant logistic advantage for high labor content manufacturing.
