A familiar storefront for doing business worldwide, Mail Boxes Etc. in Cabo
San Lucas and San Jose del Cabo offers the same advantages for doing
business in Mexico that you have come to enjoy in the States.
 The
company credo is that "MBE" not only stands for Mail Boxes Etc., but for
"Making Business Easier". Los Cabos MBE franchise owner Hector Enriquez and
his staff go the extra mile as if to make it "MMBE", Making Mexico Business
Easier.
In
previous “Doing Business in Mexico” articles, we have referred to Baja
California as a three sided island, for the difficulties in obtaining
materials and shipping,
present to the Baja business person. Well, in the last five years many
things have happened, bridging the Baja Business Gap.
Probably
the foremost of those changes for those doing business in Baja is the
internet. The internet has allowed a wide variety of smaller hotels,
restaurants and business in Baja to reach a world wide market. This webzine,
actually published in Cabo, on a server in Las Vegas is visited by web
surfers from all parts of the world.
|
The MBE staff can pack your small to medium sized items as well as
construct crates for larger items.
|
The
internet has opened the door for US and Canadian business people to move
their personal operations to Baja for part or all of the year. The
electronic connection to the business world has become easy – it is the
physical connection, for documents and goods in and out of Mexico, that
presents more of a challenge. This is where a familiar company name, Mail
Boxes Etc., can help out.

Packaging and shipping to the US or worldwide is their specialty. With a
wide variety of boxes and packaging materials you may pack your cargo
yourself or have the MBE staff do it for you. When I visited the San Jose
del Cabo store one of the employees was working diligently on constructing a
wooden crate, to ship a large piece of artwork purchased on vacation.
Hector
informed me this custom crating is a special service he has developed here
in Cabo for vacation shoppers.
