Juan Manuel González Alvarado

Juan Manuel González Alvarado is a prominent Mexican politician and civil servant currently serving as the representative of the Secretariat of Agriculture and Rural Development (SADER) in Sonora. He previously held the position of Coordinator of Civil Protection in Sonora from 2021 to 2023, where he authorized a safety program for Qui Lab, a company later linked to 'Los Chapitos', a faction of the Sinaloa Cartel. His tenure has drawn scrutiny due to his involvement in granting permits to companies with questionable ties, leading to investigations about the implications of such authorizations.
