Mexico has shown in recent years a high export activity and a change in the composition of its exports, mainly manufacturing. However, the problem facing Mexico is that the economic growth generated by exports has been insufficient, which is associated with the low Added Value of Global Manufacturing Exports (AVGME). Therefore, this study was conducted seeking to determine the AVGME of exports from Mexico to its trading partners of the Pacific Alliance. For this, the INEGI methodology was used to calculate the AVGME and the North American Industrial Classification System (NAICS). The results showed a decrease in exports and their percentage of AVGME, confirming that the strategy based on boosting exports through the creation of trade agreements is not generating the desired impact in terms of economic development.
