In just nine months, the state of Guanajuato has successfully secured 26 private investment projects totaling USD 2.4 billion and generating 7,000 new jobs, equivalent to 30% of the state’s six-year investment goal of USD 8 billion. This progress highlights the state’s competitiveness, modern infrastructure, and specialized workforce.

Of the 26 projects, 18 are new investments and 8 are expansions of existing operations. The capital is being distributed across ten municipalities: Irapuato, Silao, León, Guanajuato, San Miguel de Allende, Abasolo, Celaya, Apaseo el Grande, Romita, and San José Iturbide—reinforcing the region’s diverse industrial capabilities.

Strategic Sectors Open Opportunities for Local SMEs

These investments are focused on key sectors such as automotive and auto parts, new technologies, services, medical devices, and plastics. Each represents high-value-added industries with strong export potential. The state also aims to integrate local micro, small, and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) into these supply chains to foster collaboration with anchor companies and boost regional development.

This approach reflects Guanajuato’s commitment to sustainable economic development, technological innovation, and industrial diversification—pillars that have positioned the state as one of Mexico’s top investment destinations.

The impact of these projects is already evident in the labor market, with 7,000 new jobs committed. These positions support the productive sector, raise household incomes, and strengthen Guanajuato’s role as an industrial and technological hub in central Mexico.

The tangible results confirm that the state’s investment attraction strategy is successfully fostering balanced prosperity, creating favorable conditions for both global corporations and local business.
