Mexican retail holiday season preparations
Overview
Retailers in Mexico have begun early preparations for the year-end holiday shopping season. In September, stores in cities such as Morelia and Reynosa started displaying Christmas decorations, including trees and lights, alongside autumn seasonal items.
By mid-October, commercial activity shifted toward preparing for the Buen Fin sales event, scheduled for November 13 through November 17, 2026. In Saltillo, merchants are acquiring inventory for high-demand goods like appliances and furniture. To manage the expected surge in demand, the commercial sector in Saltillo’s historic center is increasing its workforce by approximately 30%, creating roughly 3,000 temporary jobs. Local authorities are also planning increased security patrols to cover the period through December.
