Governor Brad Little completed a productive five-day trade mission to Mexico earlier this month. The Idaho Department of Commerce, the Idaho State Department of Agriculture, and 20 Idaho businesses and organizations joined the Governor for his third official in-person trade mission as Idaho’s 33rd Governor.
In 2022, Mexico ranked as the sixth largest export destination overall for Idaho and the second largest export destination for Idaho food and agriculture products. Total exports to Mexico exceeded $202 million last year.
In a press release, the governor says the state forged valuable connections, reinforcing Idaho’s longstanding trade partnership with Mexico. He added the interactions not only solidified the state’s economic ties but also paved the way for fresh opportunities in trade and investment, contributing to the ongoing enhancement of Idaho’s economy.
