Geographic Concentration & Market Logic

China Taiwan dominates Colombia's pesticides and herbicides exports by value (23.3% share) but accounts for just 13.2% of weight, revealing a premium market demanding high-grade formulations. In contrast, Brazil’s 42.2% weight share dwarfs its 21.8% value contribution, signaling a bulk hub role for raw materials or lower-cost products. The stark value-volume gap highlights a dual trade structure: high-margin exports to specialized markets (Taiwan, Peru) versus commoditized flows to processing hubs (Brazil, Mexico). This suggests Colombia’s supply chain prioritizes premium segments while maintaining cost-efficient bulk distribution. Strategic focus should balance high-value niches with scalable volume partnerships.
