Mexico. Within the framework of the Hannover Messe industrial fair, the National Auto Parts Industry (INA) announces its commitment to collaborate with Deutsche Messe AG, represented by its subsidiary Italian German Exhibition Company Mexico (IGECO Mexico).
This alliance aims to work on the creation of a new platform focused on strengthening automotive supply in North America starting in 2025.
Francisco Gonzalez Diaz, executive president of the INA, stated that this agreement is established to take advantage of the trend of relocation of supply chains in the country or nearshoring, which provides opportunities to strengthen the national economy and generate employment in the country, accessing new markets and technologies that benefit the auto parts and automotive industry.
