MCALLEN, TEXAS
Strategy and operations consulting in McAllen.
The commercial center of the Rio Grande Valley, built on cross-border trade with Reynosa, produce imports through the Pharr bridge, health care, and retail that draws shoppers from northern Mexico.
THE LOCAL ECONOMY
What drives business in McAllen.
McAllen's economy is tied to Mexico: manufacturers in Reynosa rely on warehousing, customs brokerage and trucking on the Texas side, and the Pharr–Reynosa International Bridge is a main U.S. entry point for Mexican fresh produce. Retail and hospitality depend partly on Mexican shoppers, so the peso exchange rate and border policy move sales. Health care and education have grown quickly, including the UTRGV School of Medicine and large physician-owned and hospital systems.

WHAT COMPANIES HERE FACE
The decisions in front of McAllen management teams.
Logistics and distribution firms here must plan around tariff changes, inspection delays and shifts in where manufacturers place production under USMCA. Retailers and consumer businesses see sales rise and fall with the peso and with border crossing rules. Health care providers serve a large Medicaid and uninsured population, which puts pressure on collections and labour costs.
