Mexico Telecom Tower Market Analysis

The Mexico Telecom Tower Market size in terms of installed base is expected to grow from 43.56 thousand units in 2025 to 50.20 thousand units by 2030, at a CAGR of 2.88% during the forecast period (2025-2030).

  • Mexico, one of Latin America's largest economies, offers a lucrative market for telecom infrastructure providers. With a burgeoning population and a rising demand for mobile services, Mexico's telecommunications market is rapidly growing. Over the past few years, the Mexican government has actively worked to bolster its telecom sector, aiming to enhance its competitiveness. As a result, mobile operators and telecom infrastructure firms are locked in fierce competition, striving to deliver better services to their clientele.
  • Moreover, the increasing penetration of smartphones and the internet in the country is fueling the growth of the telecom tower market. As smartphone and internet usage rises among the Mexican populace, the demand for reliable and expansive mobile network coverage intensifies. In response, market vendors are broadening their infrastructure, notably by deploying additional telecom towers to seize the opportunity and provide enhanced connectivity to the growing consumer base.
  • For instance, the Encuesta Nacional sobre Disponibilidad y Uso de Tecnologías de la Información en los Hogares 2023 survey by INEGI revealed that 85.5 percent of urban residents in Mexico were internet users as of 2023. This figure is nearly 20 percentage points higher than the internet penetration rate in rural areas, although this gap has been narrowing since the start of the analyzed period. 
  • According to the data, the internet penetration rate in urban areas in Mexico rose from 71.1% in 2017 to 85.5% in 2023. Similarly, according to INEGI, the mobile phone user penetration rate in Mexico reached 81.4% in 2023 compared to 71.5% in 2017. Such data provides lucrative opportunities for telecom tower companies to boost their market share in the Mexico telecom tower market over the forecast period.
  • In the coming years, the deployment of 5G networks is set to gain momentum in Mexico. This technological advancement is analyzed to boost tower leasing activities within Mexico's telecom towers market. 5G networks are heavily dependent on small cells—low-powered radio access points. These can be strategically placed in diverse locations such as streetlights, utility poles, and buildings. To facilitate these small cell deployments, telecom operators frequently lease space on pre-existing telecom towers or scout for new tower sites, thereby propelling the growth of the telecom tower market.
