Who Should Participate?

Companies from all industry sectors are welcome to participate. Given the size and the dynamics of the market, there are still vast opportunities for Pennsylvania exporters in virtually any industry sector.

Why this Market?

As a neighboring country of the U.S. and member of NAFTA, Mexico is a natural market for U.S. exporters.

With a growing population and an expanding economy, Mexico became the United State’s 2nd largest export market; while it represents the 3rd largest destination for Pennsylvania-produced goods and services. The U.S. remains Mexico’s largest trading partner. In fact, over 50% of Mexico’s total imports come from the U.S. The volume of U.S. exports had been increasing by at least 20% annually for 5 consecutive years until the downturn in 2009.

With a GDP of $1.09 trillion (2008) Mexico is the largest economy in Latin America. The country’s population is 111 million (2010 est.).
