Centered between Mexico City and the U.S. border is the growing heart of Mexican industry. Together, the highland states of Zacatecas, San Luis Potosí and Aguascalientes are home to hundreds of international and domestic manufacturers. The large skilled population base, exceptional suppliers, and its central location have combined to make the Altiplano an appealing, diverse and dynamic manufacturing region for international companies.

Industry in Zacatecas came alive ten
years ago with the establishment of three Delphi plants and the construction
of Corona’s largest brewery. Then with the establishment of the Entrada
Group operation the area has grown to include diversified manufacturers
in automotive, medical, electronics and aerospace industries. Recently,
Triumph, a large aerospace company from the U.S., announced that they
will begin manufacturing in Zacatecas. Due to Zacatecas’ smaller
manufacturing base, operators in this area benefit from a very competitive
cost structure.
