New Mexico Officials Strategize on Borderzone Growth, Development Issues

The State of New Mexico sent a delegation to Chihuahua, Mexico and met with U.S Ambassador Kenneth Salazar about trade and infrastructure development issues along the international border. Economic Development Cabinet Secretary Alicia J. Keyes, Joseph De La Rosa, special project coordinator at the Department of Transportation, and Marco Grajeda, director of the New Mexico Border Authority, represented New Mexico at the Tuesday event in Chihuahua. U.S. Ambassador to Mexico, Ken Salazar, hosted the delegation, which focused on infrastructure development along the Texas-New Mexico-Chihuahua border. Attendees included officials from New Mexico, Texas, the State of Chihuahua, U.S. Members of Congress, and the Mexican federal government.

The fast and efficient connectivity to Mexico and the rest of the United States, coupled with the competitive production costs, is making Santa Teresa the fastest growing industrial base on the U.S.-Mexico border as companies look to locate manufacturing and distribution centers to North America. Three Taiwan companies in the past two years have announced new business investments in Santa Teresa and two Chihuahua food distributors have…
