In Querétaro, 18 industrial buildings are advancing, totaling 278 thousand m2, of which about a third are available, in sizes between 2,000 and 35,000 m2, with an average price of $ 4.33 per m2 per month.

Mexicali, for its part, currently builds about 171 thousand m2 when its total inventory is 2.9 million m2, which gives rise to strong construction activity in the area.
