What does the effect of supply chain coordination have?
U.S.-Mexico Supply Chains
Some economists credit NAFTA/USMCA with
strengthening the competitiveness of U.S. manufacturing
industries, especially the U.S. auto industry, through the
development of North American supply chains. A
significant portion of merchandise trade between the United
States and Mexico occurs in the context of production
sharing, as manufacturers in each country work together to
create goods. The flow of intermediate inputs produced in
the United States and exported to Mexico and the return
flow of finished products greatly increased manufacturing
activity along the U.S.-Mexico border region. U.S.
industries, including motor vehicles and electronics, all rely
on inputs from Mexican manufacturers. An automobile
produced in the United States, for example, can have
thousands of parts that come from different U.S. states and
various Mexican locations. The place of final assembly may
have little bearing on where its components are made.
