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.
