It brings together key stakeholders from the Ambos Nogales region, which includes Nogales, Arizona, and Nogales, Sonora, Mexico. The organization aims to enhance the efficiency of international ports of entry in Nogales and Santa Cruz County, focusing on strengthening the regional economy, improving international trade, and promoting community development.
