The Mexico construction market attained a value of USD 139.95 Billion in 2025 and is projected to expand at a CAGR of 5.20% through 2035. The market is further expected to achieve USD 232.34 Billion by 2035. The sector is gradually observing gains resulting from the rise of industrial investments that result from nearshoring activities, leading to a rise in the demand for factories, logistics sites, utilities, and infrastructure.
The trend of nearshoring is making it necessary for companies in the manufacturing and logistics industries to set up manufacturing plants in Mexico, which results in increased demand for industrial facilities, warehousing services, utilities, roads, and specialized infrastructure. At the same time, the availability of infrastructure development projects is providing greater opportunities to construction firms that can deliver more complicated projects within a shorter period.
The Mexico construction market continues to evolve due to significant infrastructure programs in the transport, water, housing and industrial sectors where contractors are seeking engineering and construction contracts that offer integration capability. One of the recent trends is represented by the contract of MXN 31.84 billion, including VAT, signed by Grupo Carso's Operadora Cicsa and FCC Construcción in September 2025 for the design and construction of 111 km of passenger rail route of the Saltillo-Santa Catarina railway.
Another Mexico construction market trend related to the government investments into infrastructure projects is that of a wider pipeline of projects. For instance, in November 2024, Mexico's government announced an investment of MXN 157 billion on the construction of passenger and freight railways. This includes new passenger train routes and the adaptation of the Mayan Train for cargo transport. The government expects this to generate 70,000 direct jobs and 140,000 indirect jobs. Water infrastructure projects are becoming a key area where construction companies can generate stable revenue. The government has announced 37 strategic hydraulic projects with more than MXN 30.88 billion invested in 2025 and MXN 186.57 billion to be invested through 2030. These projects include desalination, reservoirs, aqueducts, flood management and irrigation.
