Manufacturing exports served as the primary engine for this expansion, climbing 25.1% to $62.99 billion. Higher global crude-oil prices bolstered the energy sector, pushing petroleum exports up 18% to $2.42 billion, while mining exports saw a dramatic near-doubling to $2.13 billion. Agricultural shipments also posted gains, rising 2.2% to reach $2 billion.

On the import side, the demand for intermediate goods used in production climbed 29.7% to $50.98 billion, signaling sustained industrial activity. Petroleum imports increased by 27.9% to $5.07 billion, reflecting broader inflationary pressures in energy costs. For the first five months of the year, Mexico has accumulated a $5.77 billion surplus, a significant jump from the $918 million recorded during the same period in 2025.
