DESEC: Chihuahua City, a new investment magnet due to nearshoring in northern Mexico
Cruz Camberos noted that the key has been establishing a model where changing governments, the educational system, and the private sector adapt to the same development vision.
Over the past eight years, the quality of life has improved based on household income, reaching a minimum of 23,000 pesos($1,370) per household, although the target is set at an optimal 83,000 ($4,900).
"If we need to pay better salaries, we need more competitive companies, and for that, we need to be a more competitive city," he told EFE.
Since then, this development vision has been negotiated with each mayoral candidate, yielding the best results since DESEC was established 50 years ago.
Competitiveness and quality
In 2016, the city ranked 12th among the most competitive cities in the country with less than one million inhabitants. This year, the city is ranked sixth among large cities, alongside Mexico City, Monterrey (Nuevo León), and Guadalajara (Jalisco).
It has over 120 export manufacturing companies, employs more than 120,000 industrial workers, and contributes nearly 20% of the state of Chihuahua's exports, leading the nation in this area.
In this regard, Arturo Chretín Sáenz, head of Chihuahua Espectacular, highlighted the city's business tourism infrastructure and the design of an organized city, with a hotel network focused on the middle class, offering excellent service for both families and business travelers.
