Warehouse Construction Cost Calculator for Quintana Roo
How much does it cost to build a bodega? It depends on where (Cancún is not Cozumel), what (a dry storage shell is not a cold-chain logistics centre) and how much office, dock, cold room and yard you need. This calculator uses the same 2026 ranges we publish for each zone, so you get a realistic budget in a minute.
What Moves the Price of a Warehouse
Location
Islands add freight and barge logistics; coastal sites need heavier corrosion protection; inland sites are cheapest.
Clear Span & Height
Wider spans and higher eaves need heavier steel; racking height defines both.
Industrial Floor
Slab thickness, reinforcement and finish depend on racking and forklift loads.
Docks & Yard
Dock levellers, canopies and a paved truck yard are often 15–25% of the budget.
Cold Rooms
Insulated panels, refrigeration and back-up power multiply the cost per m².
Power & Permits
CFE load increases, substations, highway access and land-use files add time and money.

Indicative 2026 range before land, permits fees and VAT. A site visit and soil study set the final price.
Send me a detailed quoteWhat the estimate includes
The range covers design and engineering, foundations on standard ground, steel structure with roof and wall cladding, industrial slab, basic electrical and lighting, plumbing for toilets, and site works inside the building footprint. Offices, docks, cold rooms and yard are added with the fields above. It does not include land, permit and connection fees, a substation if CFE requires one, special soil treatment (voids in karst) or VAT. After a site visit and soil study we turn the range into a fixed price by line item.
