Century Recycling to Build Advanced Aluminum Scrap Processing Facility in Mission, TX

The company, which already maintains offices in Mission, expects to break ground on its South Mission facility in January next year.

SEATTLE (Scrap Monster): Century Recycling, a Mexico City-based scrap processing company formerly known as Comercializadora Centro y Recycling, LLC, has announced plans to establish a state-of-the-art automated aluminum scrap recycling plant in Mission, Texas. The announcement came after discussions between Century Recycling executives, the Mission Economic Development Corporation, and Mayor Norie Garza.

The upcoming facility will span 98,000 square feet and is projected to generate approximately 240 jobs, including both permanent and temporary positions, while contributing significantly to local payroll and tax revenues. Initially, the plant is expected to employ around 70 staff members, operating on a single shift. Plans for future expansion include 24/7 operations across three shifts.

Century Recycling, which already maintains a presence in Mission, anticipates breaking ground in January 2026, with operations scheduled to commence by the end of 2026. Comprehensive feasibility studies and supply chain assessments have been conducted, and the company plans to source scrap metal nationwide, as regional supplies from South Texas will not fully meet production needs.

Mauricio Osorio, CEO of Century Recycling, highlighted the critical support from local authorities in facilitating the project and expressed appreciation for the community’s backing, emphasizing the plant’s role in strengthening Mission’s economy.
