Welcome to Monterrey 

“Monterrey is the center for manufacturing in Mexico and a critical component of the North American supply chain. The supply-chain disruptions over the past several years are proving to be a longer-term opportunity for Mexico’s economy… Monterrey is also the home of three leading wire and cable companies: Viakable, Condumex Group, and DeAcero and many other companies. These are global brands that have their roots in Monterrey...

An educational plant tour is offered to the Viakable aluminum continuous casting facility and its Tech Center.

I hope to visit with you in Monterrey on November 13-15 for this well-balanced program of technical and business sessions so we can keep moving the great industry forward.”
