El Paso Market
El Paso is a border commerce powerhouse. The city sits across from Ciudad Juarez, Mexico — together they form one of the largest binational metropolitan areas in the world. Cross-border manufacturing (maquiladoras), international logistics, and trade drive the economy.
Military spending is massive. Fort Bliss is one of the largest Army installations in the country, employing tens of thousands and creating a stable economic foundation. Healthcare serves both the military community and a growing civilian population.
For El Paso business owners, the opportunity is in cross-border commerce, distribution, and the industries that serve a population of 850,000+. Warehouse space is in demand. Manufacturing and logistics companies need equipment. And healthcare practices are expanding to serve a growing and underserved market.

El Paso is one of the most underserved business lending markets in Texas — and one of the most opportunity-rich. The cross-border commerce here is real money. Distribution companies moving goods between Juarez and the US need warehouse space, trucks, and working capital. Manufacturers supplying maquiladoras need equipment financing that moves faster than the traditional banks here can offer.
And here's what most people miss: El Paso's cost of business is the lowest of any major Texas metro. A warehouse that costs $8/sq ft in Houston is $5/sq ft here. That means your commercial financing payments are dramatically lower relative to your revenue. Check the math on our loan cost calculator.
