Monterrey Business Pulse
- Culture Industrial, ambitious, and the business powerhouse of northern Mexico.
- Lunch Break 1:30 PM - 3:00 PM.
- Pro Tip Best reached between 10:00 AM and 1:00 PM. Business culture in Monterrey is more fast-paced and similar to the US than in Mexico City. However, personal trust and formal greetings are still vital. Avoid calling during the 1:30-3:30 PM lunch window strictly.

- Lunch Break 1:30 PM - 2:30 PM.
