Summary

GlobalData’s Construction in Mexico - Key Trends and Opportunities to 2028 (Q2 2024) report provides detailed market analysis, information, and insights into Mexico’s construction industry, including -

  • Analysis of the mega-project pipeline, focusing on development stages and participants, in addition to listings of major projects in the pipeline.
Following bourgeoning growth of 15.6% in real terms in 2023, Mexico’s construction industry is expected to slow in 2024, registering marginal growth at 0.3%, thereafter, declining by 6.8% in 2025, owing to high base effects and high inflation, a fall in construction confidence, a nationwide drought that is spiking energy prices, and halting production of manufacturing businesses domestically. According to the Monthly Business Opinion Survey - conducted by the National Institute of Statistics and Geography (INEGI) - the average construction confidence index declined by 2.6% YoY (year on year) in the first five months of 2024; a symptom driven by US bans on Mexico’s new Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) export terminal in January of 2024. Resultantly, oil and gas production has dramatically dropped. To-date, 9 LNG projects have been cancelled, including the Vista Pacifico Liquified Natural Gas Plant project valued at MXN34.8 billion ($2 billion). According to the INEGI, the volume index of production for oil and gas extraction fell by 3.8% YoY in the first four months of 2024, preceding annual growth of 3% in 2023.

Furthermore, Mexico’s construction industry is expected to register an annual average growth of 2.3% between 2026 and 2028, supported by public-private sector investment in energy, infrastructure, and industrial construction projects. In February of 2024, Woodside - Australian oil company - reported that its oil project, located near the south of Mexico maritime border, received government approval. With an expected investment of MXN125.1 billion ($7.2 billion), the project includes the construction of a floating oil production plant by 2028. In May of 2024, BMW commenced the construction of a battery assembly plant spanning 80,000m2 in San Luis Potosi, holding an investment of MXN13.9 billion ($800 million), and is estimated to complete by 2027. Similarly, in May, Gerdau - Brazilian steel developer - announced plans to develop a steel plant in central Mexico with an estimated investment of MXN10.4 billion ($600 million); construction is expected to commence in 2025.
