Railway connectivity, industrial infrastructure and the development of suppliers are key to boost the State’s competitiveness
Celaya/Gto News
Guanajuato’s strategic location, its industrial infrastructure and its connection with the country’s main commercial corridors represent advantages to strengthen its participation in national and international supply chains.
This was noted by the Secretary of Economy, Claudia Cristina Villasenor Aguilar, during the Second International Railway Logistics Congress, which she attended representing the Governor of the People, Libia Dennise Garcia Munoz Ledo.
The Secretary noted that, under the Governor’s vision and leadership, Guanajuato is promoting an economic policy aimed at strengthening the competitiveness of businesses, attracting investment, and generating better employment opportunities for families, recognizing infrastructure and connectivity as fundamental factors in achieving these goals.
In this sense, the State is in a privileged position in the center of the country, connectivity with highway corridors 45 and 57, as well as with the Ferromex and Canadian Pacific Kansas City rail networks, which facilitate the link with important industrial centers and the ports of Manzanillo, Lazaro Cardenas and Veracruz.
This infrastructure strengthens the conditions for the development of sectors such as automotive, agro-food, chemical, auto parts and manufacture, with operations that require efficient logistics services and reliable connections with international markets.
As proof of this capacity, Guanajuato Inland Port currently concentrates 140 companies from 19 countries and more than 40,000 jobs, consolidating itself as a benchmark for industrial integration, logistics and specialized services.
Villasenor Aguilar explained that the challenge is to continue strengthening the infrastructure and incorporating new technologies and develop specialized talent, but also to ensure that a greater number of local companies integrate into the opportunities generated by railway and logistics activity.
To advance this goal, the Secretary of Economy is promoting Industrial Connection, a strategy that links purchasing companies with previously validated local suppliers, to bring Guanajuatense businesses closer to new commercial opportunities and strengthening their participation in supply chains.
The effort is part of the Guanajuato Suma vision, a strategy that articulates the State’s capabilities to strengthen its productive activity, boost competitiveness, and create conditions for more companies and people to participate in economic development.
Villasenor recognized the Celaya Business Coordinating Council, led by Jorge Luis Gamez Campos, for promoting this meeting, as well as the National Technological Institute of Mexico, Celaya Campus, and the companies, specialists, education institutions and students participating in this knowledge exchange space.
