Mexico’s E-Commerce Surges 20% in 2024, Logistics Key Factor

Mexico’s e-commerce landscape is undergoing a structural transformation, positioning logistics as a core competitive differentiator rather than a supporting function. According to the Mexican Online Sales Association (AMVO), online retail sales reached MX$789.7 billion in 2024, marking year-on-year growth above 20%. Separately, the National Institute of Statistics and Geography (INEGI) reported that in 2023, digital commerce contributed 6.4% to national GDP, with real value-added growth of 8.5%.

This momentum, coupled with an e-commerce penetration rate of roughly 84% in 2024, has shifted corporate priorities. “Companies are now focusing on real-time, resilient, and consistent delivery execution to meet increasingly sophisticated consumer expectations,” says Helcio Lenz, Managing Director Latin America, Infios, to MBN. 

The Shift to Intelligent Supply Chain Execution

Businesses are no longer optimizing slow processes—they must build capabilities that operate with speed, precision, and resilience. “This requires a shift to intelligent supply chain execution, where technology, data, automation, and analytics fully align with the customer value proposition,” explains Lenz.

Here, technology acts as the nervous system of the enterprise, converting real-time data into decisions and actions. The goal is to anticipate disruptions rather than react, and to scale through intelligent automation rather than just adding physical infrastructure. The result is smarter operations and higher-impact work for talent, such as analysis and innovation.

Unified Platforms and Market Validation
The growth of omnichannel retail has made siloed processes and disconnected systems unsustainable. Companies now require unified, modular, intelligent platforms where inventory, orders, and transportation operate as a single, adaptive system. This logistical agility—the ability to manage inventory seamlessly and pivot quickly—is now a key market differentiator, according to Lenz.

This transformation is supported by market validation. Infios was recognized as the sole “Customers’ Choice” in the Gartner Peer Insights™ Voice of the Customer 2025 report for Warehouse Management Systems (WMS), highlighting tangible gains in productivity and customer loyalty for organizations adopting intelligent execution solutions.

Mexico’s Position in Continental Logistics
Mexico is positioned to become a continental logistics powerhouse, benefiting from rising digital demand, a sophisticated retail ecosystem, nearshoring momentum, and robust technology infrastructure. The country competes on execution, meaning future leaders will be defined by their ability to translate technology investments into operational advantage.

The strategic conversation has moved from the necessity of transformation to the speed of its achievement. “Customer trust is the new currency, earned through every successful delivery,” says Lenz. The intelligent supply chain is therefore the foundation of business competitiveness.
