Business Meetings

Arriving on time for a meeting is very important, even though you may have to wait 30 minutes or more.

Before getting down to business start with 5-15 minutes for small talk . Allow your host to begin the business discussion and if offered something to drink, don't refuse.

Negotiations

Mexicans value close relationship, therefore, it is important to avoid direct selling or pressure tactics. Mexicans can become animated when negotiating, so, be sure to not mistake this aggression. When negotiations are finished, return to the small talk.

Dress Code

For men: stylish yet classic dark colored suits with shirt and ties.

For women: stylish yet classic business suits or dresses and matching shoes.

Titles & Business Cards

Titles are very important, it is best to address people directly by using their professional title or Mr., Mrs. or Miss, followed by the surname.
