With Amazon announcing the largest industrial facility ever in our region and the successful Get HIRED! Job & Education Fair helping displaced workers find new jobs or training across the region, March closed as a great example of what happens when you have purposeful economic development.
Our mission at the Greater San Marcos Partnership (GSMP) is to enhance the quality of life for ALL our residents by attracting and retaining employers that provide good-paying jobs and benefits, and in my opinion, these types of success stories are prime examples of how a win for one community is a win for all communities in Hays and Caldwell counties.

The City of Las Cruces is taking a major move forward to attract new businesses to the city’s industrial park located on the West Mesa. At a City Council Work Session on February 22, Senior Real Estate Specialist Cilicia Villegas presented a new name for the industrial area, now called the Las Cruces Innovation & Industrial Park. The new name and a new logo will be used when recruiting businesses throughout the region and nation.
“This is a big step forward to tout what we have in Las Cruces,” said City Manager Ifo Pili who has been a vocal advocate of fostering economic development since he arrived in Las Cruces last year. “We have a gem with this industrial park that can immediately be competitive. We’ll be making improvements and creating incentives, but we have the infrastructure in place right now power, utilities, land to get companies to locate here.”
