Mercado Libre will triple its logistics capacity in Chile by 2027, expanding from 140,000 to 450,000 square metres of warehouse and distribution space. The plan covers Santiago and 14 regional cities, stretching the company's footprint from Antofagasta in the north to Puerto Montt in the south. The expansion will generate more than 2,500 new jobs and cost around US$240 million, according to trade publication Modaes.
The build-out will take two years, with new and enlarged storage centres, distribution hubs and service centres set to arrive by the end of 2027. This investment aims to improve delivery speed, reaching 26 more cities with same-day delivery and bringing online commerce to previously underserved regions.
