thyssenkrupp acquires Aceroteca to expand service centre network in Mexico's booming nearshoring market

thyssenkrupp Materials Services has acquired Aceroteca, a Mexican steel service centre operator, marking a significant expansion of the German industrial conglomerate's North American footprint. The transaction positions thyssenkrupp to capitalise on Mexico's manufacturing boom driven by nearshoring trends. Aceroteca provides steel processing and distribution services to Mexico's automotive, appliance and manufacturing sectors. The acquisition adds processing capabilities including cutting, slitting and blanking to thyssenkrupp Materials Services' global network, which generates approximately €10 billion annually. The timing aligns with accelerating nearshoring investment in Mexico as manufacturers respond to supply chain disruptions and incentives from the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement. Mexico's automotive sector, producing 3.5 million vehicles annually, represents a key growth driver for steel service centre demand.
