The recent appreciation of the dollar has created a highly favorable environment for the manufacturing industry and foreign investment in Tijuana. With the exchange rate reaching 20 pesos per dollar, this phenomenon not only strengthens the region’s industrial competitiveness but also enhances purchasing power and generates a positive impact on the local economy.
For companies operating in the city, the strengthening of the dollar provides certainty and new opportunities for expansion. Tijuana has established itself as a key destination for foreign investment, thanks to its strategic location, world-class industrial infrastructure, and access to a highly skilled workforce.
It is estimated that approximately 70% of investment projects in the area come from expansions of already established companies, reflecting their confidence in the city’s potential. Meanwhile, 30% of investments are from new players attracted by a growing industrial ecosystem, competitive incentives, and proximity to the United States—a crucial factor in the global supply chain.
Beyond the boost that nearshoring has provided to the region, Tijuana’s logistical advantages and strong manufacturing sector continue to position it as one of the most attractive cities for industrial development in Mexico. Companies in the automotive, aerospace, electronics, and medical sectors have found the ideal environment in Tijuana to operate and expand, driving job creation and strengthening the economy.
The conditions are set to continue fostering growth and making the most of this favorable environment. With an evolving infrastructure, a dynamic business ecosystem, and a privileged location, Tijuana is not only an industrial powerhouse but also a key reference point for the future of manufacturing and investment in Mexico.
