Geographic Concentration & Market Logic

Brazil dominates Paraguay's powdered milk exports, accounting for 100% of both value ($3.26M) and weight (775K), revealing no value-volume gap—a rare balanced trade structure. This suggests Brazil serves as a direct end-market for Paraguay's output, with no premium or bulk-processing arbitrage. The absence of diversification signals high dependency on a single buyer, likely driven by proximity and tariff advantages, but exposes Paraguay to concentrated demand risks. Supply chains here prioritize predictability over flexibility.
