AN AFIMAC POSITION PAPER
The USMCA Is Up for Renewal in 2026. How Will an Uncertain Outcome Affect Supply Chain Logistics?
The USMCA has supported a more agile, regional approach to warehousing and logistics—but with renewal looming in 2026, that foundation is less certain. Will supply chain leaders continue to invest in nearshoring strategies, or start to hedge? This white paper explores factors that are already shaping decisions on freight routes, distribution hubs, and fulfillment operations across the U.S., Mexico, and Canada.
The Great Manufacturing (Re)Migration offers a deep dive into the evolving landscape of global manufacturing strategy. Beyond tariffs, trade agreements, and offshoring shifts, this paper explores the full spectrum of reshoring and nearshoring trends—from the historical forces that sparked change to the technologies making local production more viable. It highlights key data from industry leaders, examines the labor challenges facing U.S. manufacturers, and outlines actionable strategies for building resilient, cost-effective supply chains in an uncertain world. Whether you’re planning a relocation or reevaluating your global footprint, this is essential reading.
