Trade mission to Mexico

Saskatchewan delegation heads to Mexico to discuss trade

Oct 10, 2025 | 1:38 PM

Saskatchewan’s Agriculture Minister will lead a mission to Mexico to strengthen trade, research and investment ties with some of the province’s long-standing Mexican partners.

Daryl Harrison said they will also help companies and industry maintain and strengthen their relationships with Mexican stakeholders.

The mission will reinforce the province’s international reputation as a reliable supplier of high-quality food, feed, and value-added commodities.

Harrison said the mission will also promote research, investment and other collaborative opportunities in Saskatchewan’s value-added sector.

“Mexico continues to be a vital partner for Saskatchewan, particularly in the agriculture sector,” Harrison said. “This mission will open new avenues to promote provincial agriculture export interests, bolster relationships with stakeholders and advance discussions with Mexico on priority agriculture issues.”

Harrison will be participating in the 2025 Tri-National Agricultural Accord, being hosted in Morelia, Michoacán, Mexico. This annual meeting is viewed as an opportunity to engage with the United States (U.S.) and Mexico and elevate Saskatchewan’s profile with these two important trading partners.

Topics this year include preparing for the Canada-U.S.-Mexico Agreement review in 2026, celebrating the International Year of the Woman Farmer coming up in 2026, and discussing animal disease preparedness, and other topics.

Mexico is a priority market for Saskatchewan, ranking as the province’s sixth-largest export destination in 2024 with $592 million in agri-food exports, which accounted for 93 per cent of Saskatchewan’s total exports to Mexico.
