Marking the biggest growth of any U.S. food- and agricultural-export market, Mexico has surged 65 percent during the past four years and is quickly catching up to Canada. Export sales to Mexico reached $31.4 billion in 2024, slightly less than Canada, which was the No. 1 market at $32.4 billion. Given recent trends, Mexico will likely surpass Canada for the first time and claim the top spot in 2025.
