The Mexican Business Travel Industry: Business Travel’s Impact on Jobs and the Mexican Economy in 2015

Category: GBTA Resources Submitted by Paul Yachnes on Apr 13, 2016 Business travel in Mexico is a significant industry, totaling $263.2 billion Mexican Pesos ($15 billion US Dollars) in 2015. When businesses send workers on the road, jobs are created, sales and taxes are generated and the national economy grows.

The focus of this study is to quantify the economic contribution made by business travel to the overall Mexican economy. To achieve this, we estimated total annual spending initiated by business travel in 2015 and used a standard economic model to translate that spending into GDP, jobs, wages, and taxes. The study also sought to profile Mexican business travelers in order to better understand their composition, behavior, motivations, and spending patterns.
