Geographic Concentration & Market Logic

Argentina dominates Paraguay's metal closures exports, accounting for 52.5% of value but only 46.6% of weight, signaling a premium market demand for higher-grade or specialized products. Chile and Bolivia follow with significant volume shares (34.6% and 17.9% of quantity, respectively) but lower value ratios, suggesting bulk-oriented trade flows. The value-volume gap reveals Argentina’s role as a high-margin destination, while regional neighbors act as cost-efficient volume hubs. This structure implies Paraguay’s export strategy prioritizes value capture in premium markets while maintaining secondary volume channels.
