## Description

Del Bajío's cargo apron ties directly into Puerto Interior, an inland logistics park that links the airport to freight rail and the federal highway network around Silao, Guanajuato. That intermodal backbone serves one of Mexico's densest automotive clusters: General Motors in Silao, Honda in Celaya, plus Mazda and Toyota operations within the Bajío, all dependent on just-in-time parts flows. Ground and cargo handling is provided by operators including Swissport, while bonded warehousing runs under Mexico's recinto fiscalizado customs regime. Ranked among the country's ten busiest passenger airports in 2024, BJX also offers substantial belly capacity alongside dedicated freight. For forwarders it is a dependable node for automotive and high-tech shipments moving toward the United States and Canada. The mix of factory proximity, rail and motorway lifts BJX well beyond a purely passenger role.
