LAREDO, TX — ARCO/Murray (ARCO), a national design-build construction company, announces the opening of its newest office in Laredo, Texas. With over 30 years of industry experience and offices in over 40 markets nationwide, ARCO continues its rapid expansion to meet the growing demand for industrial development in the region.

Laredo is now the largest inland port in the U.S., handling 60 to 80 percent of all trade between the U.S. and Mexico. The local industrial market, which has extremely low vacancy and high year-over-year absorption, is poised to continue its rapid growth as the nearshoring trend drives manufacturers and other users to Northern Mexico and South Texas.

Led by Carlos Rivas Rocha, the Laredo office solidifies ARCO's local presence, serving both national developers and regional businesses. While this office marks ARCO's formal entry into the local market, ARCO has recently broken ground on several warehouse, distribution, and manufacturing projects in the area and secured a strong pipeline leading into 2025.

As a national industrial contractor, ARCO provides tailored, turnkey solutions, leveraging its expertise to support clients at every project stage. By establishing a local office, ARCO aims to better serve their clients and contribute to the economic growth of Laredo.

ARCO/Murray has over 30 years of experience. With 40 offices across North America, ARCO/Murray has successfully completed over 5,500 projects, generating $6.8 billion in revenue in 2023.
