Geographic Concentration & Market Logic

Brazil dominates Colombia's coal coke exports, accounting for 60.5% of volume but 62.3% of value, indicating a balanced premium-bulk dynamic where demand aligns closely with volume. Spain and the UK follow, with value shares slightly exceeding weight shares (13.3% vs. 13.1% for Spain; 10% vs. 10.6% for the UK), suggesting stable, mid-tier markets. The absence of extreme value-volume gaps implies a cost-efficient supply chain, optimized for steady bulk trade rather than high-margin specialization. Venezuela’s negligible value despite higher frequency hints at low-value transshipment or re-exports. Overall, Colombia’s export structure prioritizes volume reliability over premium pricing.
