Mexico is one of the countries whose economy has been hardest hit by the geopolitical shifts of recent months, including, of course, the tariffs imposed by Donald Trump’s administration.
As a result, the country has experienced a sharp decline in the trade sector, especially in wholesale revenues, which fell by 8.9% year over year as of June 2025, according to INEGI data. The trucks and parts segment showed one of the steepest drops, down 12.4%. This has serious consequences for the maquiladora industry, once one of the biggest beneficiaries of the nearshoring boom.

Despite this, certain areas of the Mexican economy remain resilient—particularly retail trade, which has seen a 2.5% year-over-year increase in sales. Even the International Monetary Fund revised its October forecast for Mexico’s GDP growth upward to 1% (from -0.3% in April),1 reflecting a dynamic economy that is still staying afloat.
