Legal and Logistical Advantages Position Pharr, Texas as a Key Destination for Mexican Companies

At the Sinergias Summit 2025, organized by the Pharr Economic Development Corporation in Monterrey, Luis Cantú Ochoa, founder of LPS International Law Firm, shared a clear perspective on the potential that Pharr, Texas represents for Mexican companies seeking to take the next step toward international expansion.

According to the specialist, events such as this summit open valuable pathways for companies aiming to enter the U.S. market with a solid strategy.

“Sinergias Summit is about knocking on the right door. Pharr brings information directly to the entrepreneurs who need to evaluate it in order to decide whether to invest or expand into the United States,” he stated.

Pharr: infrastructure, industrial space, and a growing commercial ecosystem

Cantú highlighted three major strengths that have positioned Pharr as a key destination for new investment:

1. High-performance logistics infrastructure

The Pharr International Bridge is one of the most important commercial crossings between Mexico and the United States, strengthening cargo flows, exports, and binational supply chains.

“Everyone recognizes that the Pharr International Bridge is among the most dynamic. That has accelerated the city’s growth and made it highly attractive for setting up operations,” he said.

2. Wide availability of industrial space

Pharr offers warehouses, industrial parks, and land with expansion capacity—an essential factor for manufacturing, logistics, and foreign trade companies.

3. A mature and multicultural business ecosystem

The city provides essential legal, fiscal, and operational services for a smooth transition into the U.S. market—from soft landing support to multi-stage expansion.

Pharr and Mexico: a growing strategic relationship

Cantú emphasized that the connection between Pharr and Mexican cities strengthens every year through initiatives like Sinergias Summit.

“This reinforces the ties between Pharr and different Mexican cities. It’s a direct approach with real value for businesses seeking expansion,” he noted.

This dynamic keeps Pharr positioned as a strategic reference point for companies seeking logistical efficiency, legal certainty, and competitive advantages to operate in the United States.

According to Cantú, 2025 has brought an unexpectedly high volume of inquiries and advisory requests from Mexican companies evaluating the opening or relocation of operations to Texas.

“Visits, calls, and inquiries have far exceeded our estimates. We always knew there would be interest, but the activity has surpassed expectations,” he said.

This momentum suggests a 2026 marked by greater productive integration and accelerated growth of binational projects.
