Geographic Concentration & Market Logic

Chile dominates Paraguay's metal closures exports, accounting for 41.73% of value but only 46.13% of weight, signaling a premium market where Chile pays higher unit prices for finished/high-spec products. Bolivia, however, shows the inverse—69.40% of quantity but just 32.85% of value—acting as a bulk hub for raw or lower-value shipments. The stark value-volume gap reveals a dual strategy: premium margins in Chile vs. volume-driven trade with Bolivia. This suggests Paraguay’s export mix is segmented by buyer sophistication, with Chile prioritizing quality and Bolivia absorbing mass output. The supply chain is bifurcated—high-value optimization vs. cost-efficient scale.
