AGUASCALIENTES - Edgewell Personal Care, a multinational company from St Louis Missouri, will invest US$110 million in a personal care and hygiene products factory in Aguascalientes.

The U.S. company, which produces products for more than 25 personal care and hygiene brands, laid the cornerstone for what will be its first manufacturing plant in Mexico.

Edgewell Personal Care will supply customers such as Walmart de México, Soriana, Farmacias Guadalajara and Chedraui, among other chains.

“The relocation of companies, such as Edgewell Personal Care, continues to be a reality for Mexico,” commented Sergio Argüelles, president and director of Finsa.

He said that the arrival of foreign capital is a sign of Mexico's confidence and competitiveness.

Finsa is building the industrial building where the Edgewell Personal Care factory will be installed.

“At Finsa we are committing to a new generation of industrial parks that have strategically located world-class certifications,” he said.
