Although Guanajuato does not have a seaport, in the last ten years, it has been recognized for having the Guanajuato Inland Port, the most dynamic dry port and the one with the most significant logistical recognition in Mexico and Latin America.
This title is thanks to its geographical location as it links the country's main cities by highway and train, a means of transportation that makes it possible to connect to the maritime ports of the Pacific and the Gulf.
In addition to these benefits, it has a customs office, a bonded warehouse in the GTO Logistics Center, and is minutes away from the Guanajuato International Airport, which rounds out the communication facilities required by economic activities.
The Guanajuato Inland Port has a total of 980 hectares. There is also a higher education unit that is fully functional and integrated to the industry's needs, with a Professional Interdisciplinary Engineering Unit in the Guanajuato Campus of the National Polytechnic Institute (Instituto Politécnico Nacional), as well as an industrial technical training establishment of the Conalep.
Within the Guanajuato Inland Port, there is a model of organization and efficiency in the operation since it has four different industrial parks, which have the necessary services and infrastructure for each established company.
The City of Innovation was created within the logistics complex, which has a business and service model focused on providing added value and "mindfacture" to the industrial and manufacturing field through innovation and research.
It also has a community service center for human capital, consisting of a health care clinic, daycare center, fire station, and recreational park. There is also a business district where there is planning to install and construct hotels, restaurants, shopping centers, banking, and financial services.
Furthermore, there is the Sky Plus Aerospace Park, which aims to attract companies dedicated to the manufacture of parts and pieces, as well as aircraft maintenance, air cargo handling, and a cargo transportation center.
