Governor’s Virtual Trade Mission to Mexico
Join Governor Little, the Idaho State Department of Agriculture, and Idaho Commerce for a virtual Mexico trade mission April 19-23,2021.
Why Mexico?
Mexico became the United States’ largest trade partner in 2019 (surpassing China and Canada).
Close cultural, social, and economic ties make Mexico a natural market to consider for first-time and expanding exporters.
In 2019, Mexico was the second largest destination for U.S. agricultural exports, which totaled $19.2 billion.
The United States is the largest supplier of agricultural goods to Mexico, holding a 69 % market share.
Mexico has 13 Free Trade Agreements (FTAs) with 50 countries representing 60% of the world’s GDP.
