 Since the 1960s, industry has primarily expanded to areas north of Mexico City, thanks to significant incentives offered by the governments of the State of Mexico and Hidalgo to domestic and foreign investors.
The complete saturation of the industrial zones adjacent to Mexico City have therefore driven industrial and housing developments to Huehuetoca in the State of Mexico and Tepeji and Actopan in the State of Hidalgo. Together, these two States now have a population of over sixteen million.
In light of this tremendous growth, the federal government has built a network of highways that connects this area with several other states, giving Huehuetoca easy road and rail access to Mexico City and other locations in Mexico and the U.S. Furthermore, the current construction of an inter-urban train from Mexico City to Huehuetoca will shorten the commute to only forty-five minutes.
The over-population of Mexico City has forced people to look for alternative housing outside the city. In turn, there has been significant job creation in the industrial parks of the region, including Las Americas, Xalpa, Tepeji, and Kindi. Important groups have industrial plants in the area, such as the Tula refinery, Liverpool Distribution Center, Bimbo Group, DINA, and Peñoles. There is also considerable foreign investment, with industries from Canada, USA, Japan, South Korea, Spain, Sweden, France, and Hong Kong.
The local economy has received a tremendous boost from the expanding work force. Recent construction of 25,000 homes has increased the demand for local businesses that can satisfy the basic needs of this population, including restaurants, shopping centers, supermarkets, departments stores, and gas stations.
The northern area is considered by many to be a diamond in the rough, with massive potential for further growth. The window of opportunity for high returns on investment is still open. Please take a moment to review the information on this web page and contact us for additional information.
