Members of the National Chamber of Commerce, Services, and Tourism of Mexico City (Canaco) have reported that Chinese-made goods, entering the country illegally, are being relabeled with the “Made in Mexico” label in warehouses and shopping malls in the Historic Center, many of which are operated by Asian business owners.
The most affected items include clothing, footwear, appliances, toys, tools and furniture, according to Vicente Gutiérrez Camposeco, president of Canaco. “We cannot allow Mexico to become a dumping ground for Chinese products, which clearly harm domestic businesses and deceive consumers,” he said.
