Geographic Concentration & Market Logic
Canada dominates Paraguay's Ferro-silico-manganese exports, accounting for 44.5% of value but only 41.05% of weight, signaling a premium market demand for higher-grade or specialized specifications. Brazil follows as a bulk hub, with 25.25% value share against just 15.1% weight share, suggesting value-added processing. The Netherlands, however, shows a logistics-heavy profile (19.73% weight vs. 9.34% value), likely acting as a transshipment point. The structure reveals a dual strategy: premium pricing in North America and cost-efficient bulk flows to regional processors. Supply chains here prioritize margin over speed, with Canada as the profit anchor.
