Mazatlán’s Director of Economic Development, Raúl Valdez Hernández, told media yesterday that compared with January, 2011 investments this month have increased one hundred fold.
January last year saw no major economic development in the municipality. However, two projects have been presented to the municipality in January, 2012 for a total investment of 114 million pesos, he said.
Without specifying the names of the investors, Valdez Hernández explained the first proposed project is an hotel with a total outlay of 90 million pesos. The second is in the area of industrial agriculture, a plant for the dehydration of fruit which will require an investment of 24 million pesos.
Both investors are Sinaloan companies and both projects are expected to be ready to proceed within the next few months, the Director added.
However, the Director of Economic Development admitted that the investors have requested infrastructure upgrades to locate in Mazatlán and it is a preoccupation for the Mayor to continue the process of upgrading basic public services within the municipality.
