Chairman, TPCI, Mohit Singla said that the TPCI’s flagship export promotion event Source India Mexico is being held along with Expo CIHAC in Mexico City.

Indian companies representing various sectors including building materials, construction equipment, interior furnishing, and technology for building construction will be showcasing a wide range of Indian products in the exhibition, he added.

Underling the importance of Expo Cihac, he said that this exhibition is an ideal platform for the participants to explore the business opportunities for exports, joint ventures, technology transfers and marketing tie-ups with their Mexican counterparts and other participating countries.

The main objective of participating countries is to increase their brand exposure, attract more prospects and strengthen their relationship with the participants of the growing construction industry.

The ceramic industry of India does business of $1.243 billion worth of export from ceramic products in a year. There is great scope for business in Mexico as the ceramic products export to Mexico presently is only $73.8 million from India.

With a good number of business visitors coming from other Latin American companies as well, the overall scope for business is much larger for those participating in this expo.
