mayo 23, 2022 Luisa NEWS

APODACA, NL – The French company Faurecia, part of Grupo Forvia, a leader in the production of automotive technology, announced an investment of US$147 million in the construction of its first shared plant in the country.

“The interiors plant will have an investment of US$75 million, including machines and the building for vehicle interior design,” said Stephane Letrudet, vice president of Faurecia Interiores Mexico.

The plant will have instrument panels, production lines for other interior modules, technologies and processes such as plastic injection, vibration welding, ultrasonic welding, and assembly, based on renewable energy technologies, as they seek LEED certification.

The automotive industry is undergoing a technological revolution and Faurecia, now part of the Forvia Group, is at the center of the transformation and is confident that the talent from Monterrey will help to maintain cutting-edge technology.

Faurecia’s Interiors division is creating solutions and new designs that ensure higher levels of comfort, with natural and sustainable materials.

Companies from Germany, Japan and the US close their factories in Asia to go to the Bajío

mayo 3, 2022 Luisa NEWS

Guillermo Romero Pacheco, Secretary for the Economic Reactivation of León, says that the companies will invest close to 400 million dollars in two years.

China is no longer the manufacturing center for 15 companies of German, Japanese and American origin, which will invest nearly 400 million dollars in León and El Bajío in Mexico over the next two years.

This relocation of the companies is due to the intention of complying with the new rules of the Treaty between Mexico, the United States and Canada (T-MEC), as well as no longer paying high prices for transportation and no longer depending on the maritime industry.

“There are around 14 to 15 projects in the investment portfolio (from German, Japanese and American companies) for the municipality of Guanajuato, but there is not one that is particularly from a Chinese company,” reveals Guillermo Romero Pacheco, secretary for the Economic Reactivation of León.

German and Japanese companies take advantage of this moment to comply with the new trade rules of the T-MEC, especially the integration content of 75%, says the government official of the municipality of León.

Mazda imported some parts and auto parts from Japan, China, Singapore and other Asian countries, but now its suppliers and other companies will land in Mexico so that “they have the regional birth certificate and comply with the integration factor,” he tells Forbes Mexico .

“Some suppliers from Asia are arriving to settle in León, but they are linked to the same automotive factories,” says the former director general of the Coordinator for the Promotion of Foreign Trade of the State of Guanajuato.

The projects in the portfolio represent an investment of between 350 million dollars and up to 400 million dollars, which will be closed and tied up in the next two years, says the economist who graduated from the Tecnológico de Monterrey.

According to the secretary, among the investment projects are those that bet on the automotive industry and auto parts, as well as services and wholesale sales.

“At this time there is not particularly any request or investment project with Chinese capital in León,” adds Guillermo Romero Pacheco.

Companies of Chinese origin have been operating for many years or have joined forces to produce soles, accessories, hardware and auto parts, he adds.

In the automotive sector, in the last five years, between 2 and 3 companies with Chinese capital have arrived to be suppliers to the automotive industry in León, the official points out.

The presence of China in San Luis Potosí

“I am aware that 4 Chinese companies have arrived in the Bajío in the last two years, especially in San Luis Potosí,” says David Novoa Toscano, president of the Association of Industrial Supplier Companies of Mexico (Apimex).

The companies of Chinese origin and capital are dedicated to the production of auto parts for assemblers such as BMW and General Motors with a strong presence in San Luis Potosí, says the businessman.

More and more companies are looking for Mexican products, although a large percentage of Mexico’s exports go to the United States, today companies want and are looking for more local suppliers and there is an issue known as nearshoring.

US entrepreneurs and companies want the product in two days, because it is no longer profitable for them to wait up to six months for containers imported from Asia to ports such as Long Beach in California, Novoa Toscano points out.

“Wait six months to have product in the United States, because it is a world of time in one of the countries with the highest consumption of goods and services worldwide”

Mexico can be a benchmark in the aerospace industry

abril 27, 2022 Luisa NEWS

MEXICO – The Mexican aerospace sector is losing around US$3 billion due to the costs generated by the importation of aeroparts; in addition, it could compete with world leaders in this industry, such as China, Turkey and Japan, by generating an integrated chain of raw material suppliers.

Sixty percent of the cost structure of aeronautical manufacturing companies is allocated to the purchase of raw materials, since purchases are made on an individual basis.

“In Turkey it takes them approximately 36 hours to make a quotation because they have a developed supply chain that serves them to lower costs and reduce response time. Mexican companies must unite to compete not among themselves, but as a country; competitive nations have already understood this,” said Manuel Mancera, CEO of SpeQtrum Aerospace, a leading aerospace manufacturing company in Guanajuato.

The aeronautical sector is characterized by a highly complex production process, with a vertical structure dominated by original equipment manufacturers (OEMs), which develop the design of the final product and delegate the manufacture of the modules for the rest of the production process to suppliers. For example, Boeing and Airbus.

According to the Ministry of Economy, global outsourcing allows OEMs to save between 20% and 30% of their production costs. These supplier companies are the most critical component of the value chain and face stringent barriers to entry, including high costs related to technological requirements, training and certifications.

In Guanajuato, companies in the industry are segmented into the Bajío Aerospace Cluster that seek to support each other to be competitive as a group.

“Our intention is to create a synergy of local and regional capabilities. We have to promote the sector and it is very important to achieve a well-integrated supply chain that generates alliances. Then we will be able to take it to the country level because we have many capabilities, so as entrepreneurs we have to work together,” stated Cluster president Oscar Rodriguez Yanez.

Those involved in the sector consider the need to stop depending on raw materials from the United States and form an aerospace ecosystem that allows them to offer special processes and more complete quotation packages.

“We need to connect through the Mexican Federation of the Aerospace Industry (FEMIA) and the Clusters, to buy raw material or the machines required to expand, and to make business plans,” added Manuel Mancera of SpeQtrum Aerospace.
