In the 19th and early 20th century, '''German''' '''immigration''' was encouraged due to the perceived industriousness of Germans. German Mexicans were instrumental in the development of the [[cheese]] and [[brewing]] industries in Mexico.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.lib.utexas.edu/benson/border/arhoolie2/raices.html |title=The Roots of Tejano and Conjunto Music |publisher=Lib.utexas.edu |access-date=2013-08-19 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130727040204/http://www.lib.utexas.edu/benson/border/arhoolie2/raices.html |archive-date=2013-07-27 |url-status=dead }}</ref> Germans in the [[Soconusco]] were successful in the coffee industry.
