Industry Outlook in Mexico
Mexico faces a challenging economic landscape in 2025, with GDP growth projected between 0.1% and 1.2% and inflation close to 3.2%, according to the OECD and the Bank of Mexico. Nonetheless, the country’s manufacturing sector continues to demonstrate resilience, attracting more than 54% of total foreign direct investment in 2024—valued at US$36.9 billion.
The textile and apparel industry remains a cornerstone of the national economy, employing nearly 1.2 million people, with women representing 59% of the workforce in garment production. In 2023, Mexico exported US$9.3 billion worth of textiles but imported over US$13.3 billion, highlighting the need to strengthen local competitiveness and reduce trade imbalances.

Against this backdrop, Expo Producción 2025 positions itself as a catalyst for innovation.
