The U.S.–Mexico trade relationship is one of the most critical drivers of manufacturing supply chains today. With more than $800 billion in goods crossing the border annually, companies on both sides are rethinking their strategies for sourcing, production, logistics, and growth.In this session, Lisa Anderson, President of LMA Consulting Group, talks with Daniel Hersh, VP of Hersh Family Investments how manufacturers can effectively manage supply chains on the border.What we cover:

🔹 Cross-border trade realities: The scale of trade flowing through ports of entry and how border bottlenecks impact everything from auto parts to consumer goods.

🔹 Nearshoring momentum: Why many U.S. manufacturers are shifting production closer to home, how Mexico is benefiting and what companies should weigh before making the move.

🔹 Infrastructure & logistics: The state of roads, rail, ports and border crossings — and what it means for lead times, predictability and resilience.

🔹 Regulatory and trade policy: How USMCA, tariffs and evolving trade policies influence cost structures and risk.

🔹 Labor and talent: Opportunities and challenges in workforce availability, wages and skills on both sides of the border.

🔹 Risk management: From political shifts to supply chain security, what leaders must anticipate when relying on cross-border flows.

🔹 Future outlook: How the U.S.–Mexico partnership is shaping the next decade of supply chains — and what proactive companies are doing to stay competitive.

Key takeaway: The U.S.–Mexico trade relationship isn’t just about proximity — it’s about building resilient, cost-effective and scalable supply chains that can withstand global disruption while fueling growth.
