In the era of nearshoring, site selection is no longer just about location—it is about resource viability. For energy-intensive manufacturing (tires, glass, EV batteries), the constraint is rarely land; it is power, water, and labor stability. We employ a rigorous, engineering-first approach to site selection. We validate substation capacity, transmission line connectivity, and labor catchment depth before you ever visit a site. Our goal is to eliminate fatal flaws early and secure a location that supports 20+ years of operational growth.

Real estate transactions in Mexico and Brazil carry hidden complexities—triple net (NNN) structures, inflation indexing (CPI/US PPI), and CAPEX responsibility. GCA acts as your fiduciary, creating a competitive bidding environment (RFP Process) among landlords to secure the most favorable commercial and legal terms. We do not just find buildings; we structure financial assets that protect your balance sheet.

For manufacturers with specific technical requirements—heavy floor loads, overhead cranes, or massive power redundancy—speculative buildings often fall short. GCA manages the entire Built-to-Suit (BTS) process. We translate your manufacturing layout into a construction specification, select the right developer, and oversee the build to ensure it is delivered on time, on budget, and to spec.

In Latin America, power is not a commodity; it is a constraint. GCA serves as your energy strategist. We navigate the complex regulatory environments of CFE/CENACE (Mexico) and ANEEL (Brazil) to secure the kVA you need. From validating grid capacity to managing the design and construction of private substations, we ensure your facility is energized on schedule.

Entering a new market is high-risk. We provide the playbook for APAC manufacturers to soft-land in the Americas, whether through Greenfield, Brownfield, or M&A. From entity structuring to supply chain localization, we minimize liability and accelerate time-to-market.

Labor stability starts with living conditions. We help large employers secure and manage housing portfolios to reduce turnover and improve workforce quality. Our strategies ensure your workforce can reliably commute to the plant.
