How Contract Manufacturing Works in Matamoros
Matamoros serves as a direct extension of the Texas manufacturing corridor. Thanks to the Veterans International Bridge (Los Tomates), cargo flows seamlessly between Matamoros and Brownsville.
Labor rates here are extremely competitive, with fully burdened rates typically 40-50% lower than neighboring US facilities. The local workforce is heavily unionized but stable, primarily represented by the SJOIIM union, which requires expert local navigation.
Industrial parks are expanding rapidly, especially along the highway to Reynosa and near the border crossings, catering heavily to automotive and metal-mechanics.
