The Mexican trade fair is the most concentrated B2B prospecting event of the year: three days, thousands of visitors, 60% of the corporation's annual industrial marketing budget burned in a single event. The difference between a booth that delivers 200 qualified leads and one that delivers 30 comes down to merchandise curation: the staff polo that reads like a template, the demo giveaway that earns its place in the visitor's bag by real utility, the sampling kit the prospect takes back to the hotel and reviews in their room before the next day's meeting, the banner and backwall that hold brand presence across the three days. We serve exhibitors at Expo Guadalajara, Expo Mty, Centro Citibanamex, Cintermex, Poliforum León, WTC CDMX, Pepsi Center WTC, Centro de Convenciones de Yucatán and northern-border venues. CFDI 4.0 invoicing, Carta Porte 3.0, IVA 16% VAT, deductible as Marketing or Trade Marketing expense.
Polos, Oxford shirts, vests and jackets for the booth team working the three days. Curation by role: registration staff (polo with ID badge), sales advisors (Oxford shirt with corporate tie), demo staff (technical polo), hostesses and translators (blazer with discreet embroidery). Mexican sizing CH to XG with size stock for shift rotation. NOM-024 labeling.
Demo products and samples the visitor takes on the way out. For industrial fairs: product samples packaged in corporate boxes with technical specs, test tools, manual-format literature. For consumer fairs: product samples, miniatures, testers, discount coupons, totes with category products. Bulk packaging on pallets for continuous replenishment across the three days.
High-resolution canvas for booth backwall, vertical banners for stands, roll-ups for demo areas, signage totems for aisles and registration areas. Eco-solvent ink matte canvas print, aluminum or steel-tube structure, install by the corporate team or our mounting vendor. Standard or custom sizes based on booth floor plan.
Premium boxes for high-value prospect clients, specialized press and industry analysts. Curated content: product sample, technical manual, personalized note from the commercial director, scheduled-meeting card, engraved writing piece. Finished in rigid boxes with hot-stamping or in jute bags with embroidery. Selective delivery by the commercial team during the three days.
Booth curation runs through the corporate Trade Marketing area and the brand identity guidelines.

For the electronics industry (semiconductors, components, devices) we work with tech-appeal merchandise: encrypted USB drives, earbuds, wireless chargers, power banks.
For the food and beverage industry (CANACINTRA, Consejo Nacional Agropecuario, ANTAD) we work with product merchandise: packaged samples, recipe books, aprons, kitchen kits. For the healthcare sector (medical devices, pharmaceutical, AMIIF, CANIFARMA) we work with regulated merchandise: samples with sanitary registration, clinical manuals, specialist physician kits, scientific literature. For the aerospace industry (FEMIA, Boeing, Airbus, suppliers) we work with merchandise under technical certification and USMCA traceability.
