The Best of the US and Mexico
PR96567
MISSION, Texas, June 20, 2022 /PRNewswire=KYODO JBN/ --
Rio South Texas, a bi-national region on the U.S.-Mexico Border, encompasses
seven Texas counties and ten municipalities in the State of Tamaulipas. The
U.S. side the region spans from the Gulf of Mexico ports in Brownsville-Cameron
County in the east to the logistics centers of the Laredo-Webb County area in
the west. The Mexican portion of the region extends from the beaches of
Matamoros in the east to the manufacturing plants of Nuevo Laredo in the west.
This unique location allows for deep international relations in culture and
trade.
One of the unique trade benefits of Rio South Texas' geographic location is its
bi-national operational flexibility. Because the region encompasses portions of
the U.S. and Mexico, it allows businesses and investors to operate in two
countries while treating the business and manufacturing processes as one. It is
cost-effective because it allows companies to run operations leveraging each
country's strength under one integrated management structure, maximizing
efficiencies in both direct and indirect inputs.
Businesses operating in Rio South Texas benefit not only from bi-national
operational flexibility, but also from sitting at the doorstep of the Texas
economy, the 9th largest economy in the world with a GDP of $2.0 trillion.
Looking beyond Texas, the region is located at the heart of the North American
supply chain, allowing companies direct, speedy, and multi-modal access to all
of North America, around 25% of the world's consumer market. This multi-modal
connectivity also benefits from the region's temperate climate, allowing
efficient year-round shipping with very few disturbances. Interstate highways,
Class I railways, international airports, access to the gulf intercostal
waterway, and deep-water seaports link the region to North America, the western
hemisphere, and the globe. And with SpaceX operations at Starbase, Texas
ramping up, the Rio South Texas region may soon feature trade connections
beyond terrestrial confines.
The Rio South Texas region's trade connections find their roots in decades of
deep international relations, which were further strengthened when the United
States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA) was signed. The agreement bolstered
trade relationships between the countries, providing freer markets, fairer
trade, and a more robust operational basis.
