Strategic Location and Economic Support

The Admiral Cable New Mexico expansion benefits from strong state support and strategic location advantages. Governor Susana Martinez helped initiate discussions during a trade visit to Taiwan, which led to the project.

New Mexico will provide up to $3.92 million in Local Economic Development Act (LEDA) funding to support the investment.

Strengthening Domestic Manufacturing

T. C. Huang, Chairman and CEO of I-sheng Electric Wire & Cable, emphasized the company’s goal to expand domestic manufacturing capacity. He noted that Santa Teresa offers proximity to customers, improved supply chain efficiency, and access to a skilled workforce.

Huang also highlighted New Mexico’s competitive business environment and cost advantages, which allow Admiral Cable to compete effectively with foreign-made products while manufacturing in the United States.
