Geographic Concentration & Market Logic

Dominican Republic dominates Colombia's refrigerators and freezers exports, accounting for 15.88% of value but only 18.41% of weight, signaling a premium market demand for higher-grade or specialized units. Guatemala and Peru follow with similar value-weight gaps, reinforcing a focus on value-driven trade rather than bulk logistics. The presence of South Georgia and the South Sandwich Islands—high in quantity (12.94%) but lower in value (11.09%)—hints at a transshipment or processing hub role. This structure suggests Colombia’s export strategy prioritizes higher-margin markets over volume efficiency, with select bulk flows for regional redistribution.
