Geographic Concentration & Market Logic

Argentina dominates Paraguay's banana exports, accounting for 92.5% of value but 94.1% of weight—a slight Value-Volume Gap indicating balanced trade, likely driven by standardized bulk shipments rather than premium differentiation. Uruguay, with a higher value-to-weight ratio (7.5% value vs. 5.9% weight), hints at niche demand for higher-grade bananas. The structure reveals a cost-efficient supply chain, prioritizing volume over premium segmentation, with Argentina as the primary bulk hub.

Paraguay HS Code 0803 Breakdown & Value Logic

yTrade data reveals 08039000 (bananas, fresh/dried) dominates Paraguay's HS Code 0803 exports at 100% frequency and value share, with 5.7M kg shipped in September 2025. The absence of unit price data suggests a bulk-volume market, where Paraguay’s HS Code 0803 export strategy prioritizes mass over premium pricing. The lack of sub-code diversification indicates a concentrated trade reliant on raw, low-margin banana shipments—typical of commodity-driven economies. This reinforces Paraguay’s role as a high-volume, low-cost supplier in the global banana trade.
