Mexico

Overview

Mexico is deeply integrated into North American production networks through the United States–Mexico–Canada Agreement. Automotive, electronics and other manufacturing industries connect Mexican factories to export markets, while services, tourism and agriculture broaden the economy.

Interest in producing closer to the United States has brought renewed attention to Mexico's industrial regions. Turning that opportunity into wider prosperity depends on reliable electricity and water, better infrastructure, security and stronger links between exporters and domestic suppliers.

On the rise

Nearshoring offers Mexico a route to deepen its manufacturing role — with infrastructure, skills and local supplier development determining how widely the benefits are shared.
