Mexico – facts and figures

Back to Programme

Context
Mexico’s automotive industry counts more than 1000 auto parts companies established in Mexico. 18 of the leading vehicle manufacturers (OEMs) and more than 300 Tier 1 suppliers from the manufacturing industry have plants in the country. This made Mexico one of the ten largest automobile, trucks, parts and components manufacturers in the world and the 4th exporter of automobiles. The aerospace sector has been receiving constant FDI inflows and today exports more than 4 billion USD a year. Other manufacturing sectors, like the medical instruments sector, have gained significant market shares in international markets.

With its fast growing and stable economy and its skilled human capital, Mexico offers great business opportunities for foreign companies, especially in the manufacturing sectors. The 11 existing free trade agreements with 44 countries guarantee free access to the markets which all together cover over 60% of the global GDP.

Internationalization is no more an option, it is a must, if companies wish to maintain or improve their market position. This is true for companies of all sizes and development stages. Globalization is a fact.

We know about the challenges that mid to small size companies face when asked by their customers to move part of their capacities abroad to satisfy demand in far away markets.

Therefore we are committed to helping international companies not only settle in but expand from Mexico. Our detailed industrial process studies will allow you to estimate the potential for your organisation hence facilitating a decision to follow your clients into North America.
