Fruits of NAFTA – The Mexican cc
Links to short news item and video about Mexico medical-devices supply chain are included herewith. Thanks to NAFTA, Tijuana has transformed from a seedy party destination for overage college students to a thriving industrial hub for medical device production. Well-known names of US medical device companies produce their products in factories situated here. Mexico’s medical device industry buys much of its raw materials and capital machinery from American suppliers. Half of the factory’s final output is shipped back to the U.S. and much of the rest to American-owned companies elsewhere.

Discussion
Race to Automate your pizza
For your discussion, I am including below links to news items (videos and article) profiling a Silicone Valley startup employing robots to make pizzas. The company claims from ordering the pizza on your smart phone to getting it to your doorstep in 22 minutes! The first video link profiles the company, which is striving to even bake the pizza en route to customer! The second video also discusses how Toyota is trying to create similar mobile pizza making vehicles for Pizza Hut. And the final article plays the devil’s advocate–about how the Zume pizza maybe is just the hype.
Provide your opinion on what you learned from these news items. In your discussion, you may include your insights on whether or not is this the best use of automation technology, and what other implications it may hold for future of fast food and other services as the technology evolves.
