NOGALES, AZ — Nogales area business leaders say updates are needed for one of the state’s largest ports of entries to both grow Arizona’s vibrant trade industries with Mexico and further crack down on smuggling.

The Greater Nogales Santa Cruz County Port Authority reported increased traffic for trade and tourism this year along Arizona’s southern border ports. Top business leaders also said in addition to recent upgrades to the Mariposa Port of Entry, it’s critical to increase capacity at DeConcini to meet the needs of growing trade with Mexico.

However, even if those goals are met, local and federal leaders say staffing will need to be addressed to make things run efficiently.
