E-commerce Fulfillment

Order preparation, packing and dispatch for online retail from logistics parks in San Luis Potosí and Querétaro, with pay-per-occupancy seasonal storage.

Sector challenges

  • Severe seasonality — Buen Fin and December concentrate the year
  • Unit-level work per order rather than by pallet
  • Cost per order that decides the margin
  • Returns that must be received, inspected and restocked
  • Inventory that swings without warning

Storage requirements

  • A cost model that follows actual occupancy
  • Order-by-order preparation capability
  • Proximity to parcel carriers
  • Real-time inventory visibility

E-commerce breaks the logic of the traditional warehouse. Where an industrial operation moves full pallets to known destinations, e-commerce moves single units to individual addresses, in volumes that triple in November and collapse in February.

Hau Can Park's mission explicitly names the e-commerce sector alongside the industrial one: two very different logistics profiles served from the same infrastructure.

The fixed-cost problem

An online store that is growing contracts space sized for its peak. The rest of the year it pays for empty floor.

Flexible rental by pallet position inverts that: it is billed by month or fraction and you pay only for what you occupy. When inventory drops after December, the cost drops with it.

Rental by areaRental by position
January (low inventory)Pay in fullPay for what's occupied
November (peak)Pay in fullPay for what's occupied
CommitmentLong-term leaseMonth or fraction

This is what makes the model workable for a foreign brand testing the Mexican market before committing to it.

Fulfillment: the actual work

Preparing an e-commerce order means picking items from inventory, verifying them, packing them and dispatching them — unit by unit. It sits within our value-added services, together with labeling, packaging and palletizing. Spanish-language commercial labeling for imported goods is handled here as well.

Why location decides

In e-commerce the clock starts when the customer clicks. The distance between warehouse and carrier pickup determines whether the order ships today or tomorrow.

  • Querétaro — next to the Intercontinental Airport, where the major parcel carriers operate, and two hours from Mexico City, the country's largest market.
  • San Luis Potosí — logistics cluster with the KCSM intermodal terminal and Estafeta's distribution center at the airport, at the center of the country for national coverage.

Visibility

Outsourcing without seeing inventory is operating blind — more so from another country. WMS software rental lets you control your inventory inside our warehouse according to the operations you run.
