Netflix launches a new headquarters in Mexico to accommodate a workforce of 400 employees, marking a significant step in the company’s long-term commitment to the country’s growing entertainment industry.
A Long-Term Investment in Mexican Content
Netflix began its operations in Mexico 15 years ago, steadily building its presence in one of Latin America’s most important production markets. Last year, the streaming giant announced plans to invest $1 billion over four years to develop original Mexican films and series, reinforcing its strategy to produce locally driven content for global audiences.
A State-of-the-Art Facility in Mexico City
The newly opened office in Mexico City spans approximately 8,500 square meters. The facility includes a dedicated post-production space of 278 square meters, designed to support filmmakers and creative teams throughout the content creation process.
The Mexico team currently consists of nearly 400 employees, and Netflix expects its local workforce to grow by around 15% before the end of the year.
Strengthening Local Production Across the Country
Between 2021 and 2023, Netflix collaborated with production partners and local crews to bring projects to more than 50 cities across 25 states in Mexico. This wide geographic reach reflects the company’s effort to showcase diverse regional stories and talent.
Several Netflix-supported productions are currently underway or recently completed in the country. These include Mexico 86, starring Diego Luna; Santita, a series directed by Rodrigo García; and La captura, a feature film helmed by Chava Cartas.
A Space Designed for Creativity and Collaboration
Netflix co-CEO Greg Peters inaugurated the new building and emphasized its broader purpose beyond office space. He described the facility as a creative hub where writers, directors, actors, producers, and technical teams can collaborate. The space is also intended to bring together business partners, brands, and advertisers to explore new opportunities in storytelling.
A Cultural Center for Authentic Mexican Stories
Francisco Ramos, Netflix’s Vice President of Content for Latin America, highlighted the cultural vision behind the headquarters. According to Ramos, the facility is meant to function as more than a workplace. The company aims to create an environment for discussion, research, and creative exploration—one that helps storytellers produce authentic, diverse, and complex narratives that reflect the richness and variety of Mexican culture.
With this expansion, Netflix is deepening its roots in Mexico while positioning the country as a key hub for original content creation in the global streaming landscape.
