Chinese companies interested in investing in McAllen
MCALLEN, RGV - As we go to press, McAllen Mayor Jim Darling, members of McAllen Economic Development Corporation, and a representative from the state of Tamaulipas are in China.
They are there at the invitation of a major Chinese company. They were invited to speak to hundreds of Chinese companies in Shenzhen and Shanghai that are interested in investing on the U.S.-Mexico border.\xa0
In an interview with the Rio Grande Guardian, McAllen EDC President & CEO Keith Patridge said the interest from Chinese companies in investing in North America has been spurred in part by the new USMCA trade agreement.\xa0
In the interview, Patridge also spoke about two new companies the MEDC has landed. These companies will be bringing almost 1,000 jobs to McAllen.
