World Trade Center Industrial Park 3 Opens in San Luis Potosi

Summary: The opening of World Trade Center Industrial Park 3 in San Luis Potosi by Grupo Valoran reflects accelerating industrial infrastructure expansion to support nearshoring-driven manufacturing and logistics demand. The development aligns with AMPIP progress under Plan México, which has delivered 20 parks and expanded capacity for automotive, electronics and logistics sectors. Complementary highway investment and new manufacturing projects in Villa de Pozos strengthen regional supply chains and Mexico’s competitiveness in US-linked trade.

Mexico’s industrial infrastructure expansion gained momentum with the opening of World Trade Center Industrial Park 3 in Villa de Pozos, San Luis Potosi, a development led by Grupo Valoran that strengthens the state’s capacity to attract investment and support growing demand for specialized industrial space. The new park joins the state’s expanding industrial network and reflects broader national efforts to increase logistics capacity, enhance supply chains, and support nearshoring-driven manufacturing growth across Mexico.

The World Trade Center Industrial Park 3 is expected to improve regional connectivity and operational efficiency by integrating into key industrial corridors. Its location in Villa de Pozos, in San Luis Potosi, allows companies to streamline transportation of goods and strengthen logistics operations across the region.

This type of development responds to evolving industry needs, where proximity to suppliers and optimized logistics have become decisive factors for companies selecting investment locations. The addition of new infrastructure also expands the state’s ability to host large-scale industrial projects and advanced manufacturing operations.

Beyond connectivity improvements, the opening aligns with the state’s broader strategy to foster economic growth and strengthen industrial competitiveness. The development of modern industrial parks creates conditions for new company installations and the expansion of existing operations.

The availability of logistics-ready space is expected to benefit key sectors including automotive, manufacturing, and distribution. Additionally, Grupo Valoran’s project reinforces the regional value chain by facilitating the arrival of suppliers and complementary services that support industrial growth.

As local infrastructure expands, national efforts to accelerate industrial development are also advancing through coordinated public-private initiatives.

AMPIP Delivers First 20 Industrial Parks Under Plan México

Mexico’s private industrial developers have begun converting federal industrial policy commitments into operational infrastructure. Developers affiliated with the Mexican Association of Private Industrial Parks have delivered the first 20 industrial parks tied to the federal government’s Plan México initiative, which aims to develop 100 parks nationwide.

The projects represent more than US$711 million in investment and add approximately 3.5 million m2 of industrial capacity. The developments could host around 245 manufacturing and logistics companies and generate an estimated 62,000 direct jobs.

Altagracia Gómez, Coordinator, Regional Economic Development and Relocation Advisory Council (CADERR), presented the milestone during AMPIP’s first 2026 General Assembly, highlighting coordination between the federal government and private developers. The parks are already operating in 10 strategic states, including Nuevo Leon, Baja California, Chihuahua, Jalisco and Mexico City, all major hubs for automotive, aerospace, electronics, medical device and logistics industries.

Claudia Esteves, CEO, AMPIP, said the delivery demonstrates collaboration between the private sector and government to advance industrial and economic development.

The milestone comes as demand for industrial space continues to rise across manufacturing hubs, particularly in Monterrey, where more than 100 new industrial buildings recently added over 2.3 million m2 to inventory.

As infrastructure expands across multiple regions, transportation connectivity remains another critical factor for sustaining industrial growth.

Grupo Valoran Wins 40-Year Highway Concession

Complementing industrial infrastructure development, the government of San Luis Potosi granted Grupo Valoran a 40-year concession to construct, operate and maintain a 118.4km highway connecting the 75D junction with Matehuala. The project, valued at more than MX$20 billion (US$967 million), is expected to open in May 2027 and aims to enhance regional connectivity and economic competitiveness, reported MBN. 

The concession was awarded to a consortium including Promotora Mexicana de Autopistas Valoran and Grupo Valoran following a public bidding process. The financial structure requires at least 20% risk capital from the concessionaire, with the remaining financing secured through additional funding. The consortium also committed to subcontract at least five small and medium-sized enterprises, including Supter, Proyeco and Control de Obra, Topografía y Asesoría, supporting local economic activity.

The new highway is expected to improve freight transportation and strengthen competitiveness for states involved in international trade with the United States.

In other Villa de Pozos related news, MBN reported that Yamaguchi MFG México inaugurated a new manufacturing facility in Villa de Pozos with an investment of more than MX$250 million, creating 100 direct jobs and strengthening San Luis Potosi as an automotive industry hub. The company cited the region’s skilled workforce, business environment and logistics as key factors for expansion. The new plant will reinforce local supply chains, support nearshoring trends and promote knowledge transfer and supplier development.

Authorities said the investment reflects continued confidence from Japanese companies and is expected to generate new opportunities for SMEs. Founded in Japan, Yamaguchi MFG specializes in high-precision automotive components and aims to strengthen North American supply chains through its expansion in Mexico.
