Industries Where Mexico Excels

From metals and plastics to textiles and electronics, Mexico’s diverse manufacturing base supports both niche and large-scale projects.

Plastic Injection

Mexico’s plastics industry supports both automotive OEMs and consumer goods brands, offering advanced molding, finishing, and tooling capabilities.

Metals & CNC

While China leads in large-scale machining, Vietnam is gaining traction in basic fabrication and precision components. For companies balancing cost and quality, sourcing metals in Vietnam can provide competitive savings.

Electronics

Vietnam is a rising force in electronics assembly, especially for consumer electronics, wiring harnesses, and mid-tier components. Lower labor costs and tariff exemptions make it a strategic choice for U.S. brands.

Textiles & Apparel

This is where Vietnam shines brightest. With one of the largest apparel workforces in the world, Vietnam dominates in fast fashion, basics, and private-label clothing. Its competitive pricing and quality consistency make it the go-to hub for textiles.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why should U.S. companies consider Mexico for product sourcing?

Mexico offers shorter lead times, lower freight costs, and tariff advantages under USMCA compared to Asia. By sourcing from Mexico, U.S. companies can strengthen supply chains, reduce risk, and bring products to market faster while staying competitive on price and quality.

Mexico excels in metals and CNC machining, plastics and injection molding, textiles and apparel, and electronics assembly. These industries are supported by skilled labor, advanced machinery, and a strong integration with U.S. supply chains. Importivity helps match your business with the right factory in each sector.

Under the USMCA trade agreement, many products sourced from Mexico enter the U.S. duty-free if they meet the rules of origin requirements. This allows U.S. companies to avoid the heavy tariffs currently applied to Chinese imports, making Mexico one of the most cost-effective sourcing destinations in 2025.

Mexico sourcing offers a different advantage: speed and accessibility. While China has a greater scale, Mexico allows U.S. companies to avoid long shipping delays, reduce communication barriers, and gain geographic proximity. For many businesses, the ability to visit factories in a few hours instead of flying overseas is a major reliability advantage.

Challenges include slightly higher labor costs than in Vietnam or China and limited raw material availability for certain industries. However, the savings on logistics, the protection of USMCA, and Importivity’s ability to vet and manage factories typically outweigh these drawbacks.

Importivity provides end-to-end support, including factory vetting, contract negotiation, QA inspections, tariff strategy, and logistics. Our long-standing partnerships—many with factories that have created “sister companies” in Mexico to avoid tariff risk—give our clients unique advantages in speed, pricing, and compliance.

Yes. Mexico has a robust industrial base with factories capable of handling large container shipments and custom projects at scale. For example, Importivity has managed partnerships that have moved over 40 containers per year of custom metals for a Dallas builder, totaling more than $100 million in imports since 2015.
