Key Players in the Aluminium Industry in Mexico.

Identifying a definitive list of the top 10 players in the Mexican aluminium industry strictly by 2024/2025 revenue with precise and comparable figures is challenging based on the available public information. Many companies operating in Mexico are subsidiaries of larger international corporations, and their specific revenue generated within Mexico is not always publicly disclosed. Additionally, recent, verifiable revenue data for privately held Mexican companies can be limited.

However, based on their significant presence, activities across the value chain (particularly in secondary production, semi-fabrication, and manufacturing for key sectors like automotive and construction), and available indicators of their scale, the following companies are among the most prominent players in the Mexican aluminium industry. The table below presents information on these key players, ordered by a general indication of their scale where revenue data is available, while acknowledging the limitations in providing a strictly revenue-ranked top 10 based on current data.
