2025 Sep Paraguay Leather hides (HS4104) Export Snapshot: Volume Surge
September Trend: Paraguay Leather hides Export
Leather hides, classified under HS Code 4104 (Bovine (including buffalo) or equine leather, further prepared after tanning or crusting, including parchment-dressed leather, without hair on, whether or not split, but not further prepared.), saw exports rebound in September, with value rising 62.15% MoM to $2.59M and volume up 52.9% to 3.24M kg. The recovery followed August's sharp declines, though unit prices remained subdued at $0.80/kg, up just 6.05% from the previous month. Paraguay's updated maquila regime, effective September 8, may have influenced trade flows, though direct linkage to leather exports is unclear. The sector remains volatile, with July's surge and August's contraction highlighting sensitivity to external factors. Year-to-date, unit prices have fluctuated between $0.75/kg and $1.11/kg, reflecting unstable demand or input costs.
