Ontario's molding industry is renowned for its innovation, precision, and commitment to quality, making it a vital component of the province's manufacturing landscape and playing a crucial role in various industries, including automotive, medical, packaging, and consumer goods.
Mexico is one of Latin America’s largest plastic and molding markets, driven by its robust manufacturing base in the automotive, aerospace, electronics, consumer goods, and medical device sectors.
The new tariffs pose a serious cost and strategic challenge, forcing the reshaping of supply chains and pricing models. Proactive adaptation through CUSMA compliance, relocation of mold-making, and smart partnerships can help Ontario molders maintain competitiveness with Mexico amid this evolving trade landscape.
Join us for this interactive webinar, hosted by the Ontario Government and Global Affairs Canada, to explore real-world challenges, growth potential, and trade opportunities in Mexico’s rapidly evolving molding sector.
Speakers:
Mr. Jorge Ayala, President of the Mexican Association of Molds and Dies Manufacturing, AC.
Fernando Baños, Canadian Trade Commissioner in Guadalajara, Mexico
