From October to November of this year, Guanajuato and Michoacán will seek twinning agreements with different municipalities in the north of the country for the transport of maritime and land merchandise.

The municipal president of Silao, Carlos García Villaseñor, explained that given the saturation currently registered by the North American ports, the port of Lázaro Cárdenas is positioned as the main alternative because it is the only one in the country with 18 meters of depth in its access channel and 16.50 meters deep in the main dock of Ciaboga.

These characteristics make it the most qualified to receive vessels of up to 165,000 tons of displacement, to which must be added its connection to the Interior Port, which implies that as a region it is the most important logistics node in the Bajío-Occident and in the area of the Pacific of Mexico.

"In Guanajuato, Puerto Interior, we can receive merchandise from Lázaro Cárdenas and make some manufactures, from here pass them to the United States."

In addition to the Mexican Pacific Logistics Platform project, which consists of promoting cabotage, a work plan was generated whose first point is to link Lázaro Cárdenas and Puerto Interior with the main ports in the north of the country, those located in states like Sinaloa, Sonora and Baja California.

Both Lázaro Cárdenas and Puerto Interior would be twinned with the main logistics border cities of Mexico and the United States, such as Ciudad Juárez, Laredo and Altamira, thus allowing the support of industrial and logistics activities in Guanajuato.

As a first point to finalize the new alliances, on October 16 and 17, the representatives of the two states will visit Ciudad Juárez.

“We are going to Laredo at the end of October, we are also going to see a twinning at the beginning of November, we are going to Altamira (…) We must have very important allies and the main one is Lázaro Cárdenas, in Michoacán,” he assured.
