Internal corporate chain for the second quarter of 2026: four events for the heart of the year

The second quarter of the Mexican corporate calendar opens the first week of April with the post-Holy Week return, continues with spring technical training, brings Mother's Day on 10 May (the most relevant cultural date of the quarter), adds Father's Day on the third Sunday of June, and closes with the semi-annual board meeting that at companies listed on the Mexican Stock Exchange (BMV) is scheduled before 30 June. Corp-Merch.MX produces the full Q2 chain with a single point of contact and a single invoice: Mother's Day gift, training programme kit, mid-year offsite gift, semi-annual board material, single CFDI 4.0 invoice to SAT with 16% VAT, deductible as Industrial Relations or Training expense depending on the case, with deduction support for IMMEX programmes and USMCA operations when the chain crosses the northern border.

The internal Q2 chain: four events at the heart of the year

Mother's Day — delivery 8 and 9 May

Recognition for the female employees who are mothers, to mark 10 May. Emotional or wellness curation with a contemporary Mexican motif: organic cotton tote bag, silver jewellery designed by an Oaxacan artisan, handmade spa kit (bath salts, body cream, aromatic candle), ceramic mug from Tonalá, specialty tea box from Chiapas, personalised letter from the CEO, day-spa experience at Mandara Spa or Casa Malinche. For the children of female employees we offer a children's kit with a Mexican motif (illustrated book, artisanal plush toy, Bordados MAF backpack). Runs from 100 up to 8,000 pieces delivered in a single wave to Mexico City, Guadalajara, Monterrey, Querétaro, Tijuana, Juárez, León, Mérida, Puebla and the rest of the country.

Spring technical training — April and May

Production of the material for the technical training programmes that the Human Capital and Organisational Development areas schedule between April and May: corporate backpack with thermos and notebook, USB with course material, notepad, roller pen, parchment-style printed diploma with frame for hanging, external instructor gift (Amazon or Liverpool gift card, Montblanc pen, Citizen watch), specialty coffee service throughout the session, printed programme manual. The CFDI 4.0 invoice is issued with the Training SAT code (SAT code 86101700) so that the corporate deducts the full amount as a training expense before SAT. Runs from 30 pieces for boutique programmes up to 1,200 pieces for multinationals with an annual learning plan.

Mid-year offsite — June

Production of the offsite that the executive committee organises in June to align the team with the first-half close. Experiential curation in a Bajío hacienda (Hacienda Jurica, Hacienda Galindo, Hacienda San Miguel Regla), beach hotel (Pueblo Bonito in Los Cabos, Hotel Xcaret in Riviera Maya, Fairmont Mayakoba) or convention centre (Querétaro Convention Centre). Attendee kit with experiential gifts: wine or mezcal tasting, Mexican cooking class, spa session, external speaker gift, CEO video production for the offsite close. Production covers everything from the venue to the art direction of the event manual and the closing cocktail.

Semi-annual board meeting — before 30 June

Production of the semi-annual board of directors session that at BMV-listed companies is scheduled before 30 June, alongside the semi-annual financial report. Leather-bound institutional folder with the semi-annual report, encrypted USB with the dossier, premium gift for board members (Longines watch, Montblanc pen, Mexican art piece), specialty coffee service, simultaneous English-Spanish-Russian interpreter for international board members. Production operates under NDA with chain of custody for documents and gifts. The invoice is issued with generic corporate tax data without itemising individual line items, coordinated with the Investor Relations area to align the material with the BMV public call.

Calendar and logistics window for the second quarter

The internal Q2 chain executes over a twelve-week calendar, between the first week of April and the last week of June. Holy Week 2026 falls between 29 March and 4 April, so the first week of April is a gradual return and training events start the second week. Mother's Day concentrates the highest logistics pressure of the quarter: delivery must be coordinated between 7 and 9 May so the gift arrives ahead of the cultural date, and national couriers operate at capacity. For corporates with northern border operations, we also handle USD delivery with couriers crossing at Laredo or McAllen.

Father's Day falls on the third Sunday of June (in 2026, 21 June) and adds an operational or gastronomic gift for employees who are fathers: premium mezcal box, grilling kit, kitchen tool, Casio watch. Technical training is scheduled before 30 June so the CFDI 4.0 invoice is issued within the first semester with SAT expense code 86101700 (Training), enabling full deduction. The semi-annual board meeting is scheduled between 20 and 30 June, outside the Mexican Banking Convention window and before the first-half close. For corporates with USMCA operations, we coordinate material shipping to offices in Toronto, Vancouver, Detroit or Houston with international courier and customs documentation.

Gift curation by tier and seniority

For Mother's Day we handle emotional and wellness curation with a five-option catalogue per budget tier: $1,200 to $2,500 MXN (ceramic mug, tea kit, cotton tote bag), $2,500 to $5,000 MXN (silver jewellery, spa kit, planner), $5,000 to $12,000 MXN (Citizen watch, travel luggage, gold jewellery kit), $12,000 to $30,000 MXN (premium spa experience, art piece, national destination trip), and premium-plus from $30,000 MXN upward (international experience, fine jewellery piece).

For technical training we handle operational gifts between $500 and $1,800 MXN: corporate backpack, steel thermos, notebook, power bank, coffee kit. For external instructors we handle premium gifts between $3,500 and $12,000 MXN: Montblanc pen, gift card, Citizen watch, gastronomic experience. For the mid-year offsite we handle experiential gifts between $4,000 and $25,000 MXN per person: wine or mezcal tasting, cooking class, spa session, speaker gift, Mexican-motif kit.
