Extension of Presidential Anti-Inflation Decree

January 25, 2024

On December 27, 2023 the Government of Mexico published a presidential decree to extend the exemption of tariffs and easing of administrative procedures for the importation of basic food basket products through December 31, 2024. The extension aims to control food inflation with Mexico's presidential and governor, state, and legislative elections nearly five months away in June 2024. This is a corrected report. The previous version of the report was published on January 10, 2024. This report corrects the title and key of the table on page two (“non-core inflation” replaces “headline inflation”). The report also updates the latest inflation data through December 2023 on page two (paragraph two and the table).

Único Sabor Americano

Único Sabor Americano was created to make it easier for people in Mexico to recognize and enjoy the wide variety of high-quality, healthy, and delicious foods and beverages imported from the United States. While many already know that U.S. products are trusted worldwide for their quality, it’s not always obvious which items on store shelves actually come from the U.S. That’s where the brand comes in.

More than just a label, Único Sabor Americano celebrates the connection between Mexico and the United States. By highlighting cultural elements that both countries share, the brand helps people see U.S. foods as part of their daily lives. The goal is to show that American products can seamlessly complement local traditions and flavors, offering variety, nutrition, and inspiration in everyday meals. In doing so, Único Sabor Americano promotes not only great products, but also the strong bond between our two nations.
