Resumen

Objective: The analysis of competitiveness of Mexican mango in the global market from 1994 to 2020 was conducted.


Design/methodology/approach: The revealed comparative advantage index (RCAI) and the normalized revealed comparative advantage index (NRCAI) were calculated, with the aim of understanding the exporting specialization of Mexico and thus determine the presence of comparative advantages in exports.


Results: The average values obtained for the USA market were 1.09 (RCAI) and 0.04 (NRCAI), and for the Canadian market 6.33 (RCAI) and 0.69 (NRCAI).


Conclusion: The export sector of Mexican mango is competitive and has comparative advantages because the indices are positive.
