Mexico advances steel industry pact with new government-industry coordination push

Mexico’s federal government is moving to implement its new steel-industry promotion pact. Officials held a high-level plenary session to align public procurement plans with domestic steel capacity.

Anti-Corruption and Good Government Secretary Raquel Buenrostro led the June 10 meeting. She urged agencies to use federal purchasing power to lift national content in major projects and improve long-range demand planning across rail, energy, and water infrastructure.
