With an area of ​​546.45 hectares, the Economic Development Pole for Well-being and Innovation of Hermosillo, Sonora , is integrated into the Northern Economic Corridor and the regional trade network under the Treaty between Mexico, the United States and Canada (T-MEC) , making it a key logistics node for cross-border trade, export manufacturing and national distribution .

According to the declaration of the hub, published in the Official Gazette of the Federation (DOF) on Tuesday, the facility is strategically located just 650 meters from the Hermosillo-Guaymas highway and connected by Federal Highway 15, which is part of the Northern Economic Corridor.

It is also located near the US border, the Port of Guaymas, and has rail access two kilometers (km). It also has air access through the General Ignacio Pesqueira International Airport . This multimodal network facilitates the efficient transportation of goods and passengers, strengthening its industrial, commercial, and logistical potential .

According to the DOF, the hub has a productive, priority vocation and potential to develop the automotive, semiconductor and specialized electronics, agro-industrial, energy, logistics, and medical and measurement device industries .

These sectors will help structure an innovation and value-added platform aimed at consolidating regional supply chains and facilitating production chain relocation processes . This will enhance Hermosillo, which is already a consolidated industrial center in sectors such as automotive manufacturing, agribusiness, information technology, and the energy sector.

In addition to its connectivity, the hub maintains ties with universities and research centers for the training of specialized human capital, ensuring the availability of qualified personnel for the strategic sectors that will be established in the region.

“The property designated for the Economic Development Hub for Well-being and Innovation in Hermosillo, Sonora, has industrial land use and basic urban infrastructure, high development potential for the hub and established industries, as well as interest from new investors,” the declaration stated.

Regarding sustainability , the facility already has an environmental impact statement (EIS) and a technical justification study (TSS), both with approval resolutions issued in July 2024. “Mitigation actions are currently being carried out in accordance with the measures established by the environmental authority,” the document stated.

This development hub is aligned with the objectives of Plan Mexico , which seeks to strengthen domestic and regional markets to position the country among the world’s top 10 economies.

The project also seeks to be a long-term tool that supports an industrialization strategy in Mexico, increasing the participation of national companies in the export supply chain and in the production of products for domestic consumption.
