Strategy in Supply Chain and Logistic Ecosystems in Megaregion Sonora-Arizona

Abstract

This chapter shows the effort made by higher education institutions, governments, and companies to jointly build the strategy to define the supply chain in two logistics ecosystems as a cooperation response in Megaregion Sonora-Arizona. The areas considered were: social, gastronomic, tourism, and business and logistics development, whose objective was to build—based on projects—ecosystems in each workshop, as well as the search for funds. The method shows the procedure in five stages: (1) sensitization, (2) business and logistics conceptualization workshop, (3) development project proposal, (4) present ecosystems, and (5) search for funding sources for implementation. The main results are the constitution of two ecosystems: (1) agro-food and tourism logistic ecosystems and; (2) Health and Tourism. The main conclusions established that the two logistics ecosystems, the agro-food and tourism sector and the second in the health and tourism sectors, have the flexibility and development potential in the short and medium-term to respond to post-pandemic related to their logistics and commercialization between two states.
