Geographic Concentration & Market Logic

The U.S. dominates Colombia’s plastic packaging exports, accounting for 30.4% of value but only 17.8% of weight, signaling a premium market demanding high-value, finished goods. In contrast, Ecuador and Venezuela show weight-heavy profiles (12.2% and 17.1% weight share vs. 12.1% and 7.6% value share), acting as bulk hubs for raw or lower-grade materials. Panama’s disproportionate value share (6% value vs. 13% weight) hints at re-export logistics or specialized processing. The structure reveals a split strategy: premium focus for the U.S. and cost-driven bulk flows to regional neighbors. Supply chains prioritize value capture in key markets over uniform distribution.
