July, August and September are the quarter when the San Luis Potosí mining industry — Real de Catorce, Cerro de San Pedro, Charcas, Villa de la Paz — calibrates its procurement calendar with the OEM suppliers, maintenance service providers, regional manufacturing shops and the IMMEX operations based in Matehuala and the Altiplano. The Mining Convention is the day those suppliers sit down with the mine technical coordination, with procurement and with the IMMEX operations still receiving parts from the mining corridor. We produce the exhibitor merch with consolidated delivery to the host venue in Real de Catorce and CFDI 4.0 with the Foreign Trade Complement when the supplier is IMMEX.
The Real de Catorce Mining Convention has consolidated itself as the mid-year appointment for the silver, zinc, lead and copper sectors of the Sierra Madre Oriental. The mix is what makes it unique: in the same exhibition hall you find OEM suppliers for underground mining alongside process-equipment suppliers for the beneficiation plant, the two sectors growing fastest in San Luis Potosí during 2026. Corporate buyers at the Convention run procurement budgets fresh from the second quarter, which makes the Convention the moment when the contracts governing the next nine months are signed.
The typical exhibitor at the Convention runs a three-by-three modular booth on the host-venue floor, brings a four-to-eight-person commercial team that flies in from CDMX, from San Luis itself, from Zacatecas or from the SLP–ZAC corridor, and brings a catalogue and sample inventory handed over to buyers in print and USB form. The booth merch serves four functions: identifying the commercial team for buyers walking twenty booths in a day, the gift handed to the buyer at the close of the meeting, POP material that carries the brand when the exhibitor is not in front of the customer, and a post-visit kit that lands at the buyer's desk two weeks after the Convention with the signed proposal.
For IMMEX suppliers based in Matehuala, Charcas or Villa de la Paz, the Convention cycle overlaps with the pedimento calendar: merch enters the Convention under temporary export and is nationalised at close when it stays in the Mexican buyer's warehouse. We issue CFDI 4.0 with the Foreign Trade Complement 2.0 from the first delivery and close the pedimento when the exhibitor asks.
