Maru Campos Highlights Pegatron’s US$330 Million Expansion in Ciudad Juárez

The project will create 1,000 high-value jobs and strengthen the state’s electronics industry

Governor Maru Campos celebrated the announcement of the expansion of operations by the Taiwanese firm Pegatron Corporation, which will invest US$330 million to build a new specialized plant in Ciudad Juárez.

With this project, the company will create 1,000 new high-value jobs and strengthen Chihuahua’s position as a strategic hub on the semiconductor supply chain, as the state maintains its national leadership in the production of electronic devices.

She noted that the state currently accounts for nearly half of the circuits produced in the country; more than 185,000 Chihuahua residents work in this industry; and 21,000 young people are pursuing degrees related to the sector.

Maru Campos emphasized that this administration provides the necessary stability and support to attract new investments that generate prosperity for the state.

During the project’s presentation, the Secretary of Innovation and Economic Development, Ulises Fernández Gamboa, accompanied Kun Ling Yang, CEO of Pegatron Mexico.

The official explained that the project will be carried out during the 2026–2029 period and includes a new specialized plant in Ciudad Juárez, focused on manufacturing electronic components for electromobility and technology for data centers.

“Pegatron’s decision to continue growing in Ciudad Juárez is a sign of the confidence placed in Chihuahua and in what we can build together. This investment means greater production capacity, high-value jobs, and a long-term commitment to our talent and to the industries that are transforming our economy,” stated Fernández Gamboa.

With this investment, Pegatron reaffirms its confidence in Chihuahua, strengthens the presence of Taiwanese companies in the state, and consolidates Ciudad Juárez as a strategic hub for advanced manufacturing and global supply chains.
