Mexico Record Exports 2026, Digi Mart USA News (Mexico City, Mexico): Mexico reported a 20.6% increase in its exports, reaching a total of $481,586 million between January and September 2026, according to a publisher report from El Congresista. In September, sales to the United States exceeded $62,241 million.
The Mexican Business Council for Foreign Trade anticipates that exports will surpass $800,000 million by the end of 2026. The report attributes the significant increase largely to the computer equipment industry, which during the first four months of the year tripled its sales to the U.S.
market, reaching more than $50,000 million.
This sector now accounts for 30% of all Mexican exports to the United States, surpassing the automotive industry. In the first half of the year, computer equipment exports rose 172%, totaling $82,900 million, with 93.9% destined for the United States.
The trend is consolidating in Jalisco, where a robust electronics assembly ecosystem has developed that has been dubbed the “Mexican Silicon Valley.” Foxconn, a key player in this development, has scheduled significant investments to expand its capacity in the country. Meanwhile, Querétaro stands out as an important data center hosting hub, with an operating capacity of 72% nationally.
Despite these advances, a report indicates that much of the added value in the sector remains in Asia, posing challenges for the future of industrial growth in Mexico. The report also notes that the country’s economic growth is complemented by a 3.2% increase in the third quarter and a solid gross fixed investment rise of 5.7% annually in August.
Experts such as Gabriela Siller warn of the dependence on Asian inputs and the importance of ensuring adequate energy infrastructure to sustain this growth. The original report was compiled with information from ecosistemastartup.com.
