Current geopolitics put us as reference when it comes to investments and that is exactly what we are doing: innovating, an always risky activity, but it is riskier to not do it.

For her part, Adriana Eguía, the company’s vice president, recognized the willingness of the Baja Californian government to encourage new investments and collaborating directly with the private sector, which means the interest in investing in the state strengthens.

It should be noted that Vesta has been present in Baja California since 17 years ago, where it has managed to grow due to the potential and dynamism that this land offers. It has become the company with the largest presence in industrial ship matters in the entire state.

Meanwhile, Secretary of Economy and Innovation of Baja California, Kurt Ignacio Honold Morales said that Vesta is a company with social responsibility which has meant an exponential improvement in work conditions for all workers.
