About us
Three decades of labels. One border away.
GL Labels de México S.A. de C.V. has manufactured and designed pressure-sensitive labels in Tijuana, Baja California since 1994.
For over 30 years, GL Labels has printed the labels behind some of Mexico's most recognizable consumer products — beverages, coffee, dairy, cosmetics, and fresh produce. What started as a regional label shop in Tijuana grew into a full-service manufacturer with multi-color flexographic presses, in-house design, and finishing under one roof.
Our location is our advantage. Tijuana sits directly on the US border, 20 minutes from downtown San Diego, in one of North America's densest manufacturing corridors. For US brands, that means Mexican production economics with US-market logistics: your labels are made a short drive from California and ship domestically to anywhere in the country.
We work in English and Spanish, quote in dollars, and understand both US regulatory expectations (FDA food-contact compliance, bilingual labeling) and the realities of cross-border trade — because we've been exporting for years.
