The Port of Laredo, TX, is now the leading gateway for goods entering the U.S., surpassing both the Port of Los Angeles and Chicago O’Hare International Airport

Trump's tariffs are unlikely to hinder nearshoring investments between Mexico and the U.S. In 2024, Mexico maintained its position as the top U.S. trade partner for the second consecutive year, achieving a record-breaking total trade volume of $840 billion—the highest annual figure ever recorded between the U.S. and any other country, according to Ken Roberts, founder and president of the market research firm WorldCity.

Canada followed as the second-largest trading partner with the U.S. at $761 billion, while China ranked third at $582 billion. Mexican exports to the U.S. reached $506 billion, reflecting a 6% year-over-year growth, while imports from the U.S. to Mexico grew 3%, totaling $334 billion.

In December 2024 alone, Mexico again led as the top U.S. trading partner with $63.8 billion in trade, closely followed by Canada at $62.4 billion and China at $50.1 billion.

Among U.S. trade gateways, the Port of Laredo, Texas, ranked first in 2024 out of 450 airports, seaports, and border crossings nationwide, according to data from the U.S. Census Bureau analyzed by WorldCity. Two-way trade through Port Laredo reached $339 billion, up from $320 billion in 2023. The Port of Los Angeles ranked second with $333 billion, and Chicago O’Hare International Airport came third with a trade volume of $295 billion.

The leading exports from Mexico to the U.S. through Laredo in 2024 included auto parts ($26.6 billion), passenger vehicles ($16.6 billion), and computers ($13.4 billion). Key imports from the U.S. to Mexico comprised auto parts ($14 billion), gasoline ($3.8 billion), and electric storage batteries ($3.5 billion).

This underscores the strength and momentum of the nearshoring trend between the U.S. and Mexico, with Texas emerging as a key player in this trend. At Door Capital, we believe this presents a compelling opportunity for strategic investment.

DOOR CAPITAL PARTNERS IS PROUD TO SUPPORT VIFAC'S MISSION TO HELP PREGNANT WOMAN IN CRISIS

Door Capital Partners is committed to support initiatives that make a positive impact in our community. Last month, Door Capital Partners made a donation to VIFAC’s Annual Padel Tournament, which is VIFAC’s annual flagship fundraising event, in Guadalajara, Mexico. Paddle is one of the fastest growing sports in North America, South America and Europe.

VIFAC (Vida y Familia) is a Mexican nonprofit that helps women with unexpected pregnancies. Most of the women helped at VIFAC experience critical life situations, such as poverty, violence, malnutrition, and lack of health care that put their lives and their babies’ lives at risk. VIFAC provides a dignified alternative for these women and their children, offering healthcare, temporary shelter, psychological support, and educational resources free of charge. With the support of individual and corporate donors, VIFAC can help women to overcome challenging pregnancies and to transition to a safe and self-sufficient life to be able to provide for themselves and their babies.

US Hotel Performance Expected To Improve Despite Economic Slowdown
by CoStar

The U.S. economy is expected to slow next year while the hotel industry continues to recover and grow.

In a presentation during the PKF Hospitality Group's virtual 196+ Summit Americas 2023, Jan Freitag, national director of hospitality market analytics for CoStar, said hotel demand is expected to grow 1.8% in 2024.

That demand growth should translate to occupancy growth of 1% because hotel supply growth won’t be a big headwind for the industry, he said. In the past, the hotel industry has overbuilt heading into a downturn, but this time the higher interest rate environment is contributing to limited new supply of hotels.

The long-term average for supply growth is 2.1%, but the 2024 forecast is 0.8%, Freitag said. Room rate growth of 4.2% this year and 3% next year are basically at the current level of inflation. That means revenue per available room is expected to grow 4.8% this year and 4% in 2024, a “good conservative measure” given Oxford Economics forecasting zero GDP growth in the first two quarters of next year, he said.

Next-Gen Marketing Experts On How Launch Events Help Hotels Stand Out from the Noise
by CoStar

In the hotel industry, "launches" are often reserved for new brands or grand openings.
But Emily Penfold Dailey, founder and CEO of hospitality-focused marketing agency PenDailey Consulting, said that is short-sighted.
"In a hotel, often you think a launch is when a hotel opens for the first time and then you’re done after that," she said in the latest episode of the Next Gen in Lodging podcast

Dailey said a launch event is the perfect way to draw a new demographic to a hotel or to introduce the public to new features or room products. Having people on the property is an essential element to any launch, as that opens up opportunities for sales and revenue, but also great activation content — photos and video — for use in marketing.
In this episode of the Next Gen in Lodging podcast, host Davonne Reaves talks with Dailey as well as Monrae Tuggle, the founder of Marketing By Monrae, in "an exploration of how the hotel industry is undergoing a remarkable transformation in its approach to launching new marketing campaigns," Reaves said.

Fall Brings Group, Business Travel Back
by CoStar

Group business is back, business-transient demand is boosting hotel average daily rates and U.S. cities are enjoying their comeback.
In the latest episode of "Tell Me More: A Hospitality Data Podcast," CoStar National Director of Hospitality Analytics Jan Freitag and STR Vice President of Analytics Isaac Collazo revel in the traditional high-performance period on the U.S. hotel industry calendar.
"We're seeing pretty darn good occupancies and ADR growth, especially since September," Collazo said. "We're getting more of the traditional business traveler back, and more of the convention traveler."
Freitag added that group room nights sold in September were only a little bit lower this year than in September 2019. That reinforces the idea of a more normal U.S. hotel trend line, where typically occupancy peaks before Halloween, then begins to dip through the end of the year.

Meet the Entrepreneur Championing Young Women As Hotel Investors
by CoStar

‘She Has a Deal’ Program Teaches Underwriting, Investment Steps and Connects Participants to Capital.



Prigmore’s goal: to raise the next generation of female hoteliers, bridge the gaps that make hotel investing unattainable for women, and provide aspiring commercial real estate investors with the tools to succeed that weren’t available to her.



“Our mission is to create new pathways to hotel ownership and development for women. Increasing the number of women owning and developing hotels is inherent in that, but I say ‘new pathways’ because the way others have gotten there in the past is not necessarily how we're going to get there now, so let’s identify our barriers and take them down.”



While women make up 70% of the tourism and hospitality workforce, they only make up 10% of hotel development roles, according to data from Wyndham Hotels & Resorts.



It was the inception of She Has a Deal, which Prigmore launched in 2019.

The signature She Has a Deal program is broken down into three major segments: education, mentorship and an annual hotel pitch competition.

Formula One Grand Prix Lifts Austin Hotel Demand; Las Vegas, NYC Hotels Achieve Nearly 90% Occupancy

A “normal” week, in which comparisons were not skewed by the timing of holidays or religious observances, affirmed just what the new normal is for U.S. hotels this time of year: softer occupancy overall, revenue gains driven by higher rates, and rising demand from business and group travelers.

The third part of that equation is evidenced by stronger occupancy on the weekdays than on the weekend, as well as a larger number of hotel room nights booked at higher-end hotels and in the largest hotel markets.

Groups booked 2.3 million rooms at luxury and upper-upscale hotels, the highest level since the start of the pandemic and just 27,000 rooms shy of the same week in 2019. Year over year, group demand grew 1%, and week over week, it grew 7.9%. Groups paid an average daily rate of $266, up 5.9 percentage points week over week and 1.9 percentage points year over year. The top 25 markets posting the greatest year-over-year group occupancy increases included Seattle, Atlanta, Philadelphia and Oahu. Upper-upscale class hotels, which are most likely to host group events, posted their third-highest room demand since early March 2020.

Meanwhile, total U.S. hotel industry occupancy for the week was 69%, up half a percentage point from the previous week but down a little more than that compared to last year. It marked the third week in a row that occupancy has declined year over year, and that decline is being driven primarily by lower demand for economy hotels. On the upside, ADR increased 3.8%, its fifth consecutive week above 3%, resulting in a 2.9% gain in revenue per available room.
