Exports to the US closed 2025 at historic highs; trade surplus with the US grows

In 2025, Mexico achieved record exports to the United States, consolidating its position as the leading trade partner.

In 2025, Mexico solidified its role as the primary commercial partner of the United States, ending the year with record exports to the U.S. valued at 534.9 billion dollars, marking a 5.8 percent annual increase according to data from the U.S. Census Bureau. This notable growth not only reached a historical high for Mexican exports but also cemented Mexico's status as the largest supplier of goods to the U.S. economy, holding a 15.7 percent share of total imports to the United States, while Canada and China accounted for 11.2 percent and 9.0 percent respectively.

The impressive export performance reflects the increasing productive integration under the framework of the USMCA (T-MEC in Spanish) and the reconfiguration of global supply chains that have favored the relocation of manufacturing to Mexican territory. This strengthened position is significant given the geopolitical landscape, value-added production, and the shift towards regional supply chains that emphasize proximity and resilience.

Additionally, the bilateral trade flows between Mexico and the U.S. continued to break records, showcasing an interdependent economic relationship that is crucial for both nations. This trend suggests ongoing opportunities for collaboration and development, particularly in the manufacturing sector, as both countries navigate the complexities of global trade dynamics amidst evolving economic conditions.
