About MexVend: Connecting U.S. Buyers with Mexican Suppliers
We make it faster and easier for U.S. buyers to find Mexican suppliers and manufacturers ready to export.
What Is MexVend?
MexVend is a B2B platform headquartered in San Francisco, California, that connects buyers in the United States with suppliers and manufacturers in Mexico. It was co-founded by Samara Swenson, a Mexican-American entrepreneur, and Eric Swildens.
Our mission is to strengthen trade between Mexico and the United States. We help buyers find manufacturers, contract manufacturers, workshops, distributors, and service providers in less time. For Mexican businesses, including those that have never exported before, we offer a direct way to reach customers in the United States.
Our directory lists more than 56,000 Mexican companies. We use artificial intelligence to organize supplier information and match buyers with the suppliers that best fit their needs. With TrustPass, each supplier displays its verification level, so buyers know who they're doing business with.
U.S.–Mexico Trade: Opportunities for Businesses
US$964.1 billion
in U.S.–Mexico trade in goods and services in 2025 (USTR estimate).
Mexico was the largest U.S. trading partner in 2025. This relationship supports supply chains in automotive, aerospace, electronics, medical devices, food, packaging, industrial equipment, and logistics.
Geographic proximity, USMCA trade rules, shared time zones, and decades of business relationships make Mexico a natural choice for U.S. companies looking for closer, more reliable suppliers. For Mexican businesses, this creates real opportunities to export to the United States.

How MexVend Makes Finding Mexican Suppliers Easier
Finding the right supplier can still be hard. Many Mexican companies can make exactly what a buyer needs, but they have little online presence in English, incomplete business information, or don't show up in Google search results.
MexVend brings this information together in one directory of Mexican suppliers. Buyers describe what they need in their own words and discover suppliers that can meet their requirements, along with each company's TrustPass verification level. Learn how MexVend works
If a supplier isn't active on MexVend yet, we contact them directly. Buyers write in English, and suppliers receive requests in Spanish, so language is never a barrier.
