Sellers from Mexico reach the American marketplace through the US city that already works with Latin America every day. Truck it up the Gulf corridor, fly it from MEX or GDL into MIA, or sail it from Veracruz — your freight lands at our Medley warehouse, gets counted and inspected, carries US FNSKU labels within 24–48 hours, and enters Amazon's network twelve minutes down the road. You run the business from Mexico; Miami runs your inventory.
Mexican sellers hold an advantage most of the world envies: the largest e-commerce market on earth shares your continent. A truck leaving Monterrey on Monday can be at our dock the same week. A pallet flown from Mexico City lands at MIA in hours. No other international seller group reaches the US this fast or this cheaply.
What Mexico's proximity doesn't solve is Amazon's geography of rules. The US marketplace assigns its own FNSKUs, enforces its own prep standards — with no Amazon-side labeling service since January 2026 — and receives inventory only inside its US network. Between your export documents and Amazon's receive scan, someone stateside has to do the physical work.
That's our role. Your carrier delivers cleared freight — handled DDP by your forwarder or broker — and we count it against your documents, photograph anything the road or sea damaged, prep and label to US requirements, and split the intake between an immediate FBA shipment and Miami reserve. From then on, restocking amazon.com is a two-day cycle, not another border crossing.
| Lane from Mexico | Route | Typical timing |
|---|---|---|
| Overland | Laredo crossing → Gulf corridor → Medley | ~3–5 days |
| Air | MEX / GDL → MIA (10 min from our dock) | hours in the air |
| Sea | Veracruz / Altamira → South Florida ports | ~1–2 weeks |
| Restock after arrival | Miami reserve → Amazon MIA1 & network | 24–48 h |
From artisanal workshops to industrial plants — the US-side work your products need.
Trucks from the border, air cargo from MIA, containers from Gulf ports — all accepted, unloaded and counted against your documents on arrival day.
Condition checks with photos after the road or crossing — damage documented while your carrier claim still has teeth.
Talavera, glass, ceramics and textiles protected with bubble, boxing or bagging to a per-product spec that respects the work.
Expiration-date labels in Amazon's required format for the salsas, candies and coffee Mexican sellers export — plus bagging and case packs.
Every unit labeled for the amazon.com catalog — distinct from your .com.mx barcodes — and scan-verified before it ships.
Reserve stock in bins or pallets, billed monthly by space, feeding FBA in 24–48 hour cycles — plus FBM, Shopify and Walmart from the same shelf.
Truck via Laredo, air from MEX or GDL, or sea from Veracruz — your forwarder ships DDP with our address and your reference.
Cleared freight is unloaded, counted against your documents, and photographed — the report reaches you the same day.
Protective packaging, expiration labels where needed, and scan-verified US FNSKUs on every unit.
The opening shipment enters Amazon within 24–48 hours; reserve stock restocks on your trigger — no new border crossing needed.
The US marketplace rewards US-held inventory: full FBA delivery promises, no cross-border friction. Your winners get real American stock through Miami — and compete on level ground.
They don't have to. Each artisanal product gets a protection spec — bubble, boxing, bagging — applied identically on every batch before Amazon touches a single piece.
Miami is the wrong city for that problem. The freight ecosystem here works both languages daily, WhatsApp is a normal business channel, and our reports are plain and photographic.
Only if every restock is an export. Ship bigger, less often; your Miami reserve turns each restock into a 24–48 hour domestic move Amazon can't slow down.
Three lanes work from Mexico. Overland trucking crosses at Laredo or another border port and runs the Gulf corridor to Miami in roughly three to five days. Air cargo from Mexico City or Guadalajara lands at MIA — a flight of a few hours, ten minutes from our dock. Sea freight from Veracruz or Altamira calls at South Florida ports. Whichever your forwarder books, we receive it, verify counts, apply US FNSKU labels and forward into FBA within 24–48 hours.
Your North America unified account gives you access to the US marketplace, but amazon.com maintains its own catalog: listings need to be activated for the US and your products receive US-marketplace FNSKUs that differ from your Mexican ones. Every unit that comes through Miami is labeled for the US catalog and scan-verified, so stock that sold happily on amazon.com.mx doesn't strand at an American fulfillment center over a barcode.
Miami is the US city that does business with Latin America every day — its freight community of forwarders, truckers and brokers works the Mexico lanes constantly, and much of it operates in Spanish as naturally as in English. Add the hard logistics: an Amazon facility twelve minutes away, a major air cargo hub for MEX and GDL flights, and seaports for Gulf freight. For a business in Mexico, it's the US gateway that feels closest culturally and works hardest operationally.
Yes — talavera, barro negro, blown glass, textiles and other artisanal goods are exactly the products that need protective prep before entering Amazon's network. We bubble-wrap or box fragile pieces, bag textiles with the required suffocation warnings, and place FNSKU labels where they scan without defacing handmade work. The prep spec is agreed per product during onboarding, so every batch is protected consistently.
Once your customs broker has cleared them into the US, yes. Amazon requires expiration-date labeling in a specific format for consumables, and applying those labels is a standard part of our prep, along with poly bagging and case packing. Import admissibility for food products is your broker's territory before arrival — plan that side with them; we take over from our dock onward.
A large part of the Mexico lane is manufacturers — furniture components, housewares, tools, packaging goods — selling their own production on amazon.com. For factories we agree a pack-out spec so cartons leave your line close to FBA-ready, and our Miami work narrows to verification, US labeling and shipment building. Your production schedule stays yours; the US market stops requiring a US subsidiary to reach.
Mexico City runs one hour behind Miami for most of the year — effectively the same working day. Questions get same-day answers during business hours, receiving reports and photos arrive by email as they happen, and WhatsApp — the tool every Mexican business already runs on — works for the quick back-and-forth. No overnight waiting, no 4am calls.
Count the lane plus our 24–48 hours. An air shipment from Mexico City can land at MIA, clear, reach our dock, get inspected and labeled, and be at an Amazon facility within about a week of leaving Mexico. Overland freight adds the trucking days. The bigger speed win is ongoing: with reserve stock in Miami, every restock afterward is a 24–48 hour cycle instead of a new international shipment.
Shipping them back across the border usually costs more than the goods justify. Instead, removals flow to our Medley address: each unit is inspected and graded, resellable ones are re-bagged, relabeled and returned to FBA, and the rest are held or disposed of on your instruction. Your US returns become recovered inventory managed from Mexico by email.
Invoices are itemized in USD, matching the currency your amazon.com sales deposit in, and payable by international transfer or card from Mexico. There is no setup fee and no monthly minimum, and pricing is per unit — so a first test pallet from Guadalajara pays exactly the rate-sheet numbers, which you'll have within one business day of asking.
Tell us your product, your city in Mexico, and whether it moves by truck, air or sea. Within one business day you'll have per-unit pricing, receiving instructions for your forwarder, and a plan for your first FBA inbound.
