Interstate Highways

Via land, Los Palmares Industrial Park sits along the Nafta Corridor and is just minutes from the U.S. Interstate Highway system via I-69 East, I-2 and SH 550 (future I-169). The U.S. Interstate 69 trade corridor starts at the Veterans International Bridge in Brownsville and crosses through eight states before ending at Port Huron, Michigan, on the U.S-Canada border.

U.S./Mexico Rail Crossing

The new West Rail Bypass International Bridge (WBR) was the first international rail crossing between the United States and Mexico built in more than 100 years.  This crossing links Matamoros (Tamaulipas) to Brownsville (Texas) and is capable of carrying up to 24 million metric tons of freight a year, reducing delays in trans-border trade.

SpaceX Launch Facility

With the development of the new SpaceX Launch Site in Brownsville, Texas, just across the border from Matamoros, there are exciting opportunities for aerospace manufacturers in our area.

CURRENT

Key Industries

While our location is advantageous for all types of manufacturing, there are several key industries that are currently thriving in our area.

Automotive manufacturing

Automotive

In the state of Tamaulipas there are over 200 manufacturing companies in the booming automotive sector. A quarter of those companies can be found in Matamoros alone. Automotive suppliers such as Toyoda Gosei, Merit Mexico, Trico Products Corporation, Delphi Automotive PLC, and Dura de Mexico have discovered the benefits of manufacturing along the Mexico/U.S. border. The strategic location allows automotive manufacturers to quickly supply parts to automakers in the rapidly expanding North American market.

Renewable Energy

The emergence of wind power as a major alternative source of energy has propelled the growth of turbine suppliers over the past few years. Tamaulipas is now in the top three states in Mexico for wind power production and is home to the largest wind farm in Latin America. The growth in wind power in Northern Mexico provides an exciting opportunity for manufacturers in the Renewable Energy sector to serve a growing market and take advantage of an ample and skilled workforce.

Aerospace

With the development of the new SpaceX Launch Site in Brownsville, just across the border from Matamoros, there are exciting opportunities for aerospace manufacturers in our area. Space X makes 12 annual launches using its Falcon 9 and Falcon Heavy vehicles. Los Palmares Industrial Park is just 30 miles south of this site and is the perfect location for aerospace component and equipment suppliers to take advantage of the future aerospace cluster in the region.
