Factbox-US imports from Canada, Mexico in 2024 as tariff threat looms

(Reuters) - As U.S. President Donald Trump mulls imposing 25% duties on imports from Canada and Mexico on Feb. 1, focus has shifted to the sectors likely to bear the brunt of the tariffs.

About 28%, or about $844 billion, of all U.S. imports in 2024 came from the two neighboring countries, data from the Census Bureau shows. The automobile industry accounted for imports of more than $202 billion from Canada and Mexico combined.

"Japanese automakers like Toyota stand to gain the most so long as tariffs are applied to Canada and Mexico, as many of their imported parts come from Japan, or suppliers located in the U.S.," said Jason Miller, interim chair of the department of supply-chain management at Michigan State University's business college.

Here is a list of the biggest imports into U.S. from Mexico and Canada last year:
