Mexico City commercial and culinary developments

Overview

Mexico City’s commercial and culinary landscape is characterized by a blend of historical traditions and modern gastronomic developments.

The city maintains deep commercial roots through century-old hubs such as the Mercado 2 de Abril and La Merced, which has served as a primary supply center since the 19th century. These traditional markets are being complemented by agroecological opportunities in areas like Xochimilco and Milpa Alta, where the government supports the sale of local goods through the ‘Sello Verde’ certification.

In tandem with these traditional sectors, the culinary scene is expanding through diverse dining experiences. This includes a growing popularity of specialized dessert establishments offering seasonal and dairy-free options, as well as large-scale gastronomic initiatives like the #AmexForFoodies program, which connects consumers with over 50 established and emerging restaurants across various neighborhoods.
