Mexico’s large consumer base, strong manufacturing sector, and proximity to the U.S. make it a key market for multinational companies. However, staying competitive requires a clear understanding of how rivals operate, from pricing models to supply chain efficiencies. Benchmarking is an essential tool for optimizing performance, but challenges like regional market variations and informal competition can complicate the process
