Puerto Vallarta Cruise Industry to Benefit from Federal Port Investment

The federal government of Mexico has earmarked $76 billion pesos ($6 billion USD) to upgrade the country’s ports used for commercial purposes, primarily cruise ships in tourism and exports, including upgrades to the marina terminal of Puerto Vallarta.
