The uncertainty surrounding the imposition of tariffs would force Baja California companies to relocate some of their production lines to the United States, said the director of New Business at Grupo Logix, José López Castellanos.
He said that although Donald Trump's plan to impose taxes on Mexican products is part of a strategy to strengthen the American industry, this seems unlikely in the short term.
The director of New Business at Grupo Logix stressed that Baja California has a "solid" manufacturing industry that provides distribution services, process design, products, among other services.
This, he mentioned, keeps the northern border region as a strategic point for the permanence of corporations in the automotive, medical devices, aerospace, and other sectors.
On the other hand, he did not rule out that another trend is that large corporations choose to migrate their entire production chain to the neighboring country as well as to other entities in the Mexican Republic to comply with tariff provisions.
