Description

This site was called Denimburg because it housed the most advanced automated technology available in the textile industry today, making this facility the most modern North American textile mill. It is strategically located in the City of Edinburg (McAllen-Edinburg DMA), at the southern tip of Texas to serve both North American and Latin American markets.

Denimburg, as its name hints, the “City of Denim,” is now closed due to changes in its industry, which represents an amazing opportunity for site selectors.

Manufacturing has been a mainstay in the Rio Grande Valley Region since the 1980’s and post COVID and the global supply chain issues, the RGV region has seen explosive growth due to renewed emphasis on near-shoring and the fact that many US corporations have relocated their Chinese manufacturing efforts back to the North of Mexico.

Both UT RGV and South Texas College provide yearly a wealth of well trained vocational and graduate technicians and engineers to satisfy the growing skilled workforce needs of the region.

The McAllen OEM Automotive Cluster features 29 industrial parks, companies such as TI Automotive, Delphi Teck, and Panasonic, with a manufacturing labor force of 136,000, and a young and growing population with a median at of only 29 years. An hour away is the Brownsville OEM Automotive cluster of similar size and importance for Tier I and Tier II automotive production.

To support this industry with specialized labor, South Texas College offers the only FESTO certified training program in the U.S. which features PLC and automation systems, as well as Robotic Welding with state-of-the-art equipment donated by General Electric.
