Mexico Market and Growth Opportunities

Mexico, the second-largest country in Latin America with a population of over 120 million, has seen internet use grow steadily among a higher percentage of the population. The country has also emerged as a strategic business and technology hub for many American businesses. As in other countries around the world, public cloud availability is a key element for large-scale digital transformations by companies. During the coronavirus pandemic, businesses in Mexico have accelerated their digital transformations by putting workloads and apps in the cloud for their work-from-home employees.

“The traffic growth in Mexico is exploding. The challenges to supply chains impacting availability of high volume of transmission equipment and routing gear have limited growth and access to this emerging area for top cloud, gaming, cloud security and mobile application companies.  This expansion and synergy bringing Internet connectivity at scale meets an immediate need for this bandwidth,” said Luis Velasquez, Mexico Business Manager, Arelion.

Arelion’s continued, organic expansion in the region also provides crucial backbone services for major global service, content and cloud providers that require low latency and high-speed connectivity in Mexico. It also creates an opportunity to address the local, in-market connectivity needs of regional content providers.
