The past few months have been a whirlwind for businesses. A dock strike last month threatened to bring global trade to a standstill, reminding us how fragile supply chains can be. Now, with the election behind us and discussions of increased tariffs on imports back on the table, the uncertainty feels more pressing than ever.

At Pacific Transformer, we get it. These challenges aren’t abstract—they directly impact your costs, timelines, and ultimately, your bottom line. That’s why we’ve built our business on one core belief: a resilient supply chain is non-negotiable.

Adaptability in Action

When the dock strike loomed, we didn’t wait for disruptions to take hold. We adjusted production schedules, rerouted shipments, and leveraged our near-shore manufacturing facility in Tijuana, Mexico, to ensure continuity.

This wasn’t the first time we’ve had to pivot quickly, and it certainly won’t be the last. In fact, adaptability is in our DNA. Back in 2021, we expanded our footprint in Tijuana by over 300%, adding a 52,000-square-foot industrial facility. Located just 40 minutes from the U.S. border and less than three hours from our Anaheim headquarters, this facility has become the cornerstone of our supply chain strategy.

Here’s how our Tijuana location strengthens your supply chain:

Faster Lead Times: With proximity to major transportation routes and the U.S. market, we avoid port bottlenecks and deliver faster.

Lower Costs: Near-shoring reduces exposure to tariffs and eliminates many of the risks tied to long-haul international shipping.
Quality Assurance: Situated in a robust industrial zone, we tap into a skilled labor pool to maintain the high standards you expect.

Challenges like dock strikes and tariff hikes aren’t going away. At Pacific Transformer, we’ve spent over 40 years refining a supply chain strategy that’s designed not just to withstand disruptions but to thrive in spite of them.
