AS MEXICO BOOMS, POTENTIAL CHALLENGES LOOM Over the past four years, the North American supply chain has begun a transformation driven by numerous large - scale events. Whether it's revaluating the viability of overseas manufacturing hubs in once -trade-friendly territories or circumventing the Suez Canal , supply chain managers are constantly on red alert these days. Throughout all the challenges and changes in recent years though, one thing can be agreed upon by North American shippers: Mexico is booming . Trade between the U.S. and Mexico has never been in a better place. As reported by FreightWaves , Mexico has solidified its position as the number one trading partner with the U.S., leading in trade for 13 of the past 14 mont hs. In February, two - way trade between the two partners reached $67 billion — an 11% YOY increase . What industries are benefiting the most you might be asking? Right now, the automotive and computer sectors are leading the manufacturing pack. Top imports from Mexico to the U.S. include passenger and commercial vehicles, auto parts, and computers. And top exports from the U.S. to Mexico include computer parts, computer chips, auto parts, and gasoline. Fuel aside, the advanced manufacturing exports from the U.S. (particularly computer chips and parts) are playing heavily into Mexico's growth as an automotive manufacturing and assembly hub . In March, Laredo, TX was the busiest international gateway ($27.8B) for U.S. trade for the 12th consecutive month. Over 250,000 commercial trucks moved between the U.S. and Mexico via Laredo, carrying a wide variety of goods destined for both sides of the border. Foremost, there is a greater need for drivers and equipment to move the larger number of northbound shipments into the U.S. and Canada . This imbalance causes delays on the U.S. side as shippers vie for limited space. Additionally, the infrastructure within Mexico is not yet at the level it needs to be to support the growing needs of the quickly evolving North American supply chain. Challenges aside, shippers must keep their businesses moving forward. And one way to accomplish that is to diversify your cross- border transportation and logistics strategy.
