About Coastline

What makes Coastline a reliable manufacturing partner is our ability to consistently meet high standards for quality, delivery, and service. As labor and transportation costs associated with distant offshore locations continue to rise, many OEM’s are choosing to manufacture closer to home. Let us show you how free trade (USMCA) and low-cost labor makes Tijuana Mexico an excellent location for nearshore manufacturing.

Coastline is the preferred manufacturing partner of many well-known OEM brands and organizations. We build lasting, long-term relationships with our customers who choose to outsource their manufacturing to Mexico for the free trade cost benefits afforded by USMCA (formerly NAFTA).

Our team can also manage the procurement and logistics processes for you, including the full “turnkey” solution of procurement of materials and components, materials management, alternate source suggestions, and import/export management. Per ISO standards, Coastline can perform quality assurance testing and first article inspection to ensure that every finished good meets your exact specifications before being shipped to its destination.

Coastline specializes in offshore (nearshore) medical device manufacturing and electronics manufacturing and we have extensive experience working in the aerospace and consumer goods sectors. A typical Coastline client develops their products in the United States, outsources some or all of their manufacturing to our Mexico facility, and markets & sells their products in domestic and international markets.

Coastline currently operates 3 facilities, which total over 50,000 sq. ft. of manufacturing space, including 5 separate ISO Class 8 / Class 100,000 cleanrooms. This strategic location is only 15 minutes (less than 10 miles) from the San Diego border.
