Geographic Concentration & Market Logic

Vietnam dominates Paraguay's raw cotton exports, accounting for 100% of both value ($620.12K) and weight (424.63K kg), revealing a balanced value-volume gap—suggesting Vietnam acts as a bulk processing hub rather than a premium end-market.

This structure implies Paraguay’s supply chain is optimized for volume-driven trade, prioritizing cost-efficient bulk shipments over higher-margin specialty cotton. For Paraguay Raw Cotton Export destinations, Vietnam’s dominance underscores a reliance on industrial demand rather than niche buyers.
