As an established strategic trade partner, Mexico has become an ever-important market for Canadian businesses, including publishers looking for opportunities to export their books abroad.
A dynamic publishing industry in its own right, Mexico is also a bridge to other Spanish-language markets in the Americas and has become a dominant force in Spanish–language publishing across the globe.

- the state of publishing, key players, distribution, and retail
- reading and book buying habits
- the trade, children’s, and education markets
- the fast-growing digital publishing market
- Mexico’s rich network of national and local book fairs
- and much more!
