Fortech Products, Inc. proudly announces the expansion of its IATF 16949-certified blending capabilities in Guadalajara, Mexico, strengthening its ability to serve customers across the region while maintaining the same high-quality standards established at its headquarters in Brighton, Michigan.
This expansion marks a significant milestone in Fortech’s long-standing commitment to the Mexican market. Rather than a new entry, this move represents a deepening of roots, allowing the company to provide even more localized support and faster response times for its existing and future partners across the region.
“Expansion in Guadalajara is a significant step in Fortech’s long-term growth strategy,” said Creighton Forester, President and CEO. “This investment expands our global manufacturing footprint and positions us to support customers in Mexico with the same consistency, quality, and technical leadership that define Fortech worldwide.”

Adrián Vitela, Country Director for Mexico, adds, “For our customers in Mexico, having Fortech on the ground makes a real difference. Local production means faster response, deeper collaboration, and solutions shaped by an understanding of the unique challenges and opportunities within Mexico’s manufacturing sector.”
Strategic Growth, Consistent Service
The expansion of the Guadalajara location joins Fortech’s existing network of sites in Chihuahua and Saltillo, creating a robust infrastructure designed to handle increased demand. Key benefits of this expansion include:
- Enhanced Local Expertise: A growing team of local specialists who understand the unique nuances of the regional market.
- Operational Resilience: Increased capacity to manage, produce, and ship chemicals with greater agility. Additional locations ensure reliable backup capabilities.
- Deepened Partnerships: More opportunities for face-to-face collaboration with regional clients.
