The company's Rosarito facility will initially occupy 50,000 square feet of industrial space and will expand to utilize 100,000 square feet after one year of operation. The building will eventually house 200 direct labor workers.

According to the president of Coastal Closeouts, Inc., Carl C. Jones, "We chose to open a facility in Rosarito, Baja California, due to its proximity to our Southern California headquarters, and due to the ease with which we can ship our product from that location. Tecma was chosen as Coastal Closeout's service provider due to its knowledge of Mexico's business environment, and the quality of the recommendations that were provided to us regarding the level of the companies' service."
