Resources

In order to finance export purchases and induce private investment there are a number of resources available from both the United States and Mexican governments.  The U.S. government has three main agencies that work in hand with Mexico for these specific purposes: U.S. Trade and Development Agency; Export-Import Bank; and Overseas Private Investment Corporation.  As well, Mexico’s Secretariat of Agriculture, Livestock and Rural Development currently has fifteen programs, many of which could prove quite useful for businesses in el Bajío.  Please visit these websites for information on eligibility and program specifics.

The U.S. Embassy’s Commercial Service in Mexico City helps el Bajío firms find U.S. suppliers and identify new American technologies.  With its network of more than 100 offices across the United States, the U.S. Commercial Service of the U.S. Department of Commerce can assist el Bajío firms to develop joint projects with American companies.

The U.S. Commercial Service has offices in Mexico City, Guadalajara, Monterrey, and Tijuana.  For assistance in locating a U.S. provider of a particular product or service please register online or call Alejandra Calderon, Director, American Business Information Center at (52-55) 5140-2651.
