Mexican goods exports reached an all-time high of US$81.42 billion in July 2026, marking a 43.7% increase compared to July 2025, according to Mexico's statistics agency INEGI. This surge, driven by non-oil shipments, was primarily fueled by a 177.57% increase in computer equipment exports, accounting for 76.75% of total export growth.
Meanwhile, automotive exports experienced only a 2.4% rise. The trade deficit narrowed to US$848 million, with imports of computer equipment soaring 220.01%. The United States accounted for 84.51% of non-oil exports, with sales to this market increasing by 49.8% in July. Despite the impressive export growth, manufacturing output and factory employment declined.
Analysts suggest the export boom may be temporary due to inventory buildup and uncertainties in U.S. trade policy.
