On June 11, 2025, the Mexican Federal Government, through the Ministry of Economy (“SE”) announced two significant strategic investments in the country, aligned with government initiatives under the Mexico Plan1:
(i) A 2.75 billion dollars investment in a new industrial plant in the Southeast region of the country; and
(ii) A 625 million dollars investment in industrial parks across Mexico.
As part of the Mexico Plan strategy, focused on promoting both national and foreign industries in the country, various actions have been implemented to achieve this goal, including the creation of Economic Development Poles for Well-Being (Polos de Desarrollo Económico para el Bienestar)2, Tax incentives for new investments in the country3, a new National Digital Single Window for Investment simplification, among many others. The plan currently aims to build 100 new industrial parks by 2030.
Within this framework, the Federal Government highlighted that the 625 million dollars investment pertains to the operation of 13 of the 100 industrial parks planned. Additionally, it specified that an additional investment of 5 billion dollars is expected for this sector.
Additionally, the Government announced a 2.75 billion dollars investment between 2025 and 2028 for the construction of a new industrial plant in Kanasín, Yucatán, aimed at meeting the demand in the southeastern region of the country, representing a significant boost to the Mexican economy in the southeast.
Mexico’s President stated: “Investments in Mexico continue, confidence continues. Today, the exchange rate is below 19 pesos per dollar: 18.98.”4
The Federal Government underscored the crucial role that foreign investment played in the project, noting that without it, the achievement of the 13 inaugurated industrial parks would never have been realized.
These strategic investments are not isolated events; they are part of an investment portfolio under the Mexico Plan, totaling a historic 200 billion dollars, distributed across the entire national territory.
Both investments reflect the confidence in the country from both foreign and national companies, thanks to the favorable and stable macroeconomic conditions currently prevailing in the country, even amid global business uncertainties.
