Rio Grande City's prosperity is intricately woven into strong cross-border relationships with Mexican municipalities, particularly Camargo, Miguel Alemán, Ciudad Mier, and Ciudad Díaz Ordaz in Tamaulipas. "We are part of a community with numerous opportunities and advantages for all businesses and industries. Our collaborations with neighboring Mexican cities and those along key routes like 2, 54, and 83 grant us a powerful voice that resonates with investors seeking the ideal investment destination," says Guillén.
Nurturing a Skilled Workforce
In an effort to bolster Rio Grande City's capabilities, the city places a significant emphasis on education, forging various agreements to cultivate a more competent workforce with skills and professions aligned with industry needs. Guillén, in an interview with Mexico Industry, emphasized the importance of fostering a binational culture to achieve this goal. "The vast influx of investments and goods that traverse the US-Mexico border daily is a testament to Rio Grande City's prosperity. We can guide investors toward the best location for their businesses, leveraging direct connections to other international crossings, airports, seaports, and highways that connect us to the entire nation."
Incentives Galore
Rio Grande City extends a warm welcome to investors by offering a plethora of economic incentives and streamlined processes for setting up their businesses, further complemented by the advantages and resources inherent to the state of Texas.
To ensure that the benefits match the anticipated levels of investment and job creation, the city's EDC provides personalized guidance and facilitates all necessary procedures. "We want investors, entrepreneurs, and everyone else to become familiar with our city, the Camargo International Bridge – your first choice for trade, as we boast no queues or wait times unlike other crossings. Specifically for businesses, we guarantee full support when establishing themselves here."
New infrastructure
International trade stands as Rio Grande City's primary economic driver. As part of their strategy to attract investments, private resources are being channeled into new infrastructure, with the expansion and construction of storage facilities at the international bridge as the most significant development on the horizon.
Rio Grande City is poised to write the next chapter in its economic success story, welcoming investors with open arms and positioning itself as a prime destination for those looking to benefit from its flourishing trade and commerce ecosystem.
