Key International Opportunity in a Fast-Moving Marketplace
With a population of more than 124 million, and over half the population 29 years of age and younger, Mexico's burgeoning healthy products market reflects a growing, educated middle class wanting to get healthier. Plus, with the government's campaign to fight obesity through education, new food nutrition laws, the recent junk food tax, and increased access to healthier products, now is the time to enter Mexico.

"The Mexican healthy products market is rapidly expanding," said John Pagliaro, President of The Mexican Healthy Product Summit and partner with Trade Show Consulting, LLC, a veteran trade show event producer in the U.S. and Mexico. "Healthy food and beverages are leading the way, and healthy personal care products are gaining quickly in popularity. With many new specialty health stores opening in major cities throughout the country, more Mexican consumers are including healthy products in their lifestyle," he said.
