Doing business

UK Trade & Investment (UKTI) is here to welcome the opportunities and challenges that globalisation offers - and to rise to them.


We do this by working to support UK-based businesses to hunt out and seize opportunities overseas. We also encourage the best overseas companies to look to the UK as their global partner of choice.

Are you looking to export?


Our range of expert services is tailored to the needs of individual businesses, aiming to maximise their international success. The Help for UK Companies pages will give you access to all the knowledge, advice and practical support that UKTI can offer your company.

Do you want to invest in the UK?


UKTI helps overseas companies bring high quality investment to the UK’s vibrant economy – acknowledged as Europe’s best place from which to succeed in global business. Our Business Investment in the UK pages provide support and advice to investors at all stages of their business decision-making.

 

Mexico is perceived to be a tough proposition, even for the seasoned exporter, due to high levels of bureaucracy and complicated procedures. In fact, doing business in Mexico is no more difficult than in other emerging markets, and in many cases it is much easier.

The government is actively working to reduce bureaucracy and improve competitiveness, and is driving forward reforms to attract new investment and diversify trade. Naturally, some things are done differently here but, as with all overseas markets, many of the potential pitfalls can be avoided with adequate preparation.

UK Trade & Investment helps companies of all sizes do business in Mexico through a network of international trade teams based in the English regions and devolved administrations. In Mexico, there are dedicated trade & investment teams based in Mexico City, Monterrey, Guadalajara, Tijuana and Villahermosa.
