Background

Concanaco Servytur is Mexico's national confederation of chambers of commerce, representing retail, tourism and services businesses across the country.

Its ordinary role is advocacy and economic analysis on behalf of member businesses nationwide, independent of any single event. During the 2026 World Cup it produced one of several competing estimates of the tournament's economic impact, a role consistent with its standing function of tracking commercial activity for its members.

The divergence between its figure and government estimates reflects differing methodologies and scope rather than any dispute Concanaco itself has raised with federal authorities.

Competing impact totals

Concanaco backs a 45-50bn peso total

Concanaco Servytur estimated the World Cup's nationwide economic impact at 45 to 50 billion pesos, among four competing totals reported around 22 July 2026 for a tournament that also touched Mexican host cities beyond the capital. That figure sits above the federal tourism secretariat's narrower estimate of 39.7 billion pesos in tourist spending across the three host cities.

No single Mexican government body has reconciled Concanaco's nationwide total against the other three figures, including Mexico City's own 44 billion peso claim, leaving businesses and officials citing different numbers for the same event.
