Mexico's Exports Reach Record High in April, Boosting Trade Surplus

Mexico's trade surplus widened sharply in April to $4.52 billion as exports climbed to their highest level on record since 1980.

The rise was driven mainly by non-petroleum exports, with manufacturing at the core of the increase. More than 83% of these non-petroleum exports were destined for the United States, underscoring Mexico's deep integration with US supply chains and its growing role as a manufacturing hub for the US economy.
