Who We are

Mexico is our Technology

  • Tecma’s flexible business solutions enable manufacturers to configure their shelter maquiladora operations in ways that will best serve to optimize their ability to achieve defined overall strategic and economic manufacturing goals and objectives. It was Tecma’s founders’ intention to design a user-friendly Mexico Shelter Manufacturing Partnership (MSMP) business model that would streamline clients’ Mexican operations and empower the executives managing them to fix their attention solely on competencies core to their primary mission.

  • The Tecma Group of Companies was founded over three decades ago by current company president and CEO, K. Allan Russell, along with three mentoring business partners. What started in 1985 as a small operation occupying a total of 8,500 square feet has become a sizable international enterprise that occupies production, warehouse and distribution space on both sides of the international border at El Paso, Texas and Ciudad Juarez, San Diego and Tijuana.

  • In addition, Tecma provides Mexico Shelter Services in cities throughout Mexico including Torreon, Rosarita, and Silao. Russell is the firm’s majority owner, with minority owners all being members of the Tecma Senior Executive Team.

The excellence of the Mexico business solutions that Tecma provides is an extension of the company’s highest and most closely held values. Among them are:

Unwavering Integrity
