Geographic Concentration & Market Logic

The United States dominates Colombia's cut flowers export, accounting for 78.6% of value but only 76.6% of weight, indicating a slight premium market demand for higher-grade or specialized floral products. Canada and the UK follow distantly, with value shares (4.3% and 3.4%) lagging behind their weight shares (4.3% and 4.6%), suggesting more commoditized trade flows. The narrow value-weight gap in the U.S. trade implies Colombia’s supply chain is finely tuned for high-margin exports, prioritizing quality over bulk logistics. This structure reveals a strategic focus on premium markets, with secondary partners serving as volume-driven, lower-value outlets.
