Mexico's motorcycle auto parts industry plays a crucial role in the automotive supply chain. Auto parts manufacturers are responsible for producing essential components that ensure the operation and safety of motorcycles.
Mexico has 30 assembly plants, mainly located in Jalisco, Estado de México and Querétaro, which are supported by a wide network of distributors and suppliers throughout the Mexican Republic.
Likewise, motorcycle sales in the country grew 5.2% from January to April 2024, compared to the same period in 2023, reaching 440,815 units, a trend that is expected to continue increasing due to the demand from different segments of the population.
Mexico's motorcycle manufacturing industry ranks eighth in the world and first in Latin America, surpassing Brazil, thanks to local manufacturers, where Italika leads with 70% of the market share.
These companies not only supply the domestic market, but also export to several countries, contributing significantly to the Mexican economy.
According to AMFIM, there are great investment opportunities in this sector. The development of local suppliers is a priority, as it reduces costs and delivery times, in addition to promoting job creation.
He also emphasized that the integration of the supply chain is fundamental to improve the efficiency and competitiveness of the industry, among this, investing in technology and training is key to strengthen local suppliers and ensure their participation in the global market.
