Elche and Region Business District meets with mayors to map the region’s industrial future
The Elche and Region Business District, known as Cedelco, held a convening with the mayors of Aspe, Novelda, and Monforte del Cid to outline a roadmap for the region’s industrial development. The goal is to unite the three towns around a shared vision and translate it into concrete actions that strengthen the Medio Vinalopó business fabric and create meaningful economic momentum for the area.
During the session, the participants agreed to take the initial step toward a collective commitment that binds the three municipalities. The focus is an industrial area of more than one million square meters designed to meet evolving regional business needs. This initiative is seen as a second phase or support project for the anticipated Puerto del Sol, aligned with the future Mediterranean Corridor. The plan sits between Novelda and Monforte and is intended to complement existing projects that drive the region forward.
