More than 45,000 European companies, many of them SMEs, export to Mexico.

Omissions

• The figure originates from European Commission communications around the modernised EU–Mexico Global Agreement (signed/adopted in 2026), not from a dedicated Eurostat statistical release on the number of exporting enterprises to Mexico; it is an official Commission estimate.
• The exact proportion of SMEs among those 45,000 exporters is not given by the Commission pages retrieved; the EPP Group's communication states '80% of which are small and medium enterprises', which supports the claim that 'many of them' are SMEs.
