Ciruli concurs: “If you look at the last ten years’ worth of history, there’s been an increase in crossings through Nogales and there is now a more diverse product line with much longer shipping seasons. We expect crossings through the Nogales port will continue to grow,” he predicts.
Havel echoes these thoughts, and says there’s plenty of room for more growth in Nogales. “The future of the Nogales produce business has never been brighter,” he insists. “The Mexican influence over our produce industry will show continuous growth for the unforeseeable future. A variety of premium products, with an exp-anded season,all grown and packed with the highest regard for food safety and an eye on social responsibility— is a winning combination.”
