Geographic Concentration & Market Logic

Brazil dominates Paraguay's concentrated milk exports, accounting for 85.1% of value and 84.8% of weight—a near-parity gap indicating balanced trade in both volume and revenue. This suggests Brazil serves as a stable, bulk-oriented market for Paraguay’s output, likely absorbing raw or semi-processed milk for further distribution or domestic consumption. Lebanon, the secondary destination, shows a slight premium (14.9% value vs. 15.2% weight), hinting at niche demand for higher-value products. The absence of extreme value-weight disparities implies Paraguay’s export strategy prioritizes consistent volume flow over premium segmentation. Supply chains here are optimized for scale, not specialization.
