ATS selected Hermosillo, Mexico due to the stability of the labor force which is not located on the US border, but still less than a 4-hour drive via a major trade logistics route.  Hermosillo is a relatively prosperous state capital city (Sonora) with multiple technical universities turning out well-trained workers. 
Why Mexico?

ATS selected Mexico for its lower-cost manufacturing solution over other country locations for several strategic reasons:

  • Low labor costs - significantly lower labor costs than in the US. Stable rules of business: 25+ years of US-Mexico electronics manufacturing partnerships.
  • Lower shipping costs - faster and more flexible shipping to North and South American markets.
  • Intellectual property safer - stronger protection of intellectual property than in many Asian countries.
  • Stable exchange rate - currency valuation highly stable relative to US dollar value.
  • Market type match - Mexico is now focused on serving the higher mix-lower volume market.
  • Lower language barrier - English is spoken more widely than in most Asian countries.
  • Easier travel - only 1/2 day of travel from most US locations.
