Adjusting Your Footprint Strategy

Shifting your company’s footprint—whether through relocations, consolidations, reshoring, nearshoring, or offshoring—is a multifaceted process that requires careful evaluation. There’s no one-size-fits-all solution, and trendy or “hot” locations often pose risks when not evaluated objectively. Realshoring™ focuses on helping businesses align location strategies with specific business objectives and operational needs.

An effective Realshoring™ approach can address a range of objectives, such as:

• Reducing geopolitical, regulatory, or operational risks

• Minimizing supply chain disruptions

• Enhancing revenue growth opportunities

• Improving access to skilled workforce talent

• Leveraging key utility and transportation infrastructure

• Monetizing assets and freeing up tied capital

What’s the Right Strategy for Your Business?

Reshoring may seem like the obvious path, but it isn’t always the optimal solution. For some, “coming home” makes strategic sense, while others might benefit more from regionalizing operations within Asia, Europe, or the Americas. Nearshoring to a neighboring country with unique competitive advantages can also be a compelling option.

Domestic firms exploring global growth may find that establishing an offshore presence is a crucial next step. Realshoring™ helps businesses assess these possibilities and make informed decisions about their global footprint.
