Newsletter 15  Porsche Club Mexico opens up Puebla Region
The Casino Militar in Mexico City was the venue for the magnificent ceremony celebrated to commemorate the opening of the Puebla Region.

With the presence of Jorge Rios Hellig, President of the Porsche Club Mexico, Martin Spannagel representing the Porsche Clubs Worldwide, Fernando Flores Beristain, Director of Porsche de Mexico and the PCM board members the ceremony was a true success for PCM history.

Despite many years of history the PCM had no representation outside Mexico City, nonetheless it was in the agenda to expand the horizons of the PCM. Porsche Latin America along with Porsche de Mexico also included in their business plan to expand the PCM within Mexico. Regions with dealers would open up first and others would follow. Puebla was ellegible under this plan so we decided to work with the plan and on September 3rd, 2005 the Puebla Region of the PCM was officially constituted.

The Casino Militar offered the perfect atmosphere of elegance and glamour to celebrate such important date, along with beautiful Porsche cars and very nice people, we can call the opening of the Puebla Region a true success.
