The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) has a strong presence in Mexico and is represented by the Foreign Agricultural Service (FAS), the Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS), and the Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS). FAS leads USDA’s trade and market development efforts through its Offices of Agricultural Affairs (OAA) and Agricultural Trade Office (ATO).
Located at the U.S. Embassy in Mexico City, FAS also has an office in Guadalajara (OAA) and an ATO in Monterrey. These offices work together to support U.S. agricultural exports, provide market intelligence, promote U.S. food and agricultural products, and strengthen trade relations between the United States and Mexico. To further support USDA’s mission in Mexico, APHIS and FSIS work to protect the health and value of American agriculture and natural resources from products entering into the United States, and work with trading partners to adhere to U.S. food safety science-based regulations.
