2025 Apr Paraguay Raw hides (HS410411) Export Snapshot: Vol Dip

April Trend: Paraguay Raw hides Export

Raw hides, classified under HS Code 410411 (Whole bovine (including buffalo) or equine hides and skins, raw), saw mixed trends in April, with unit prices edging up 0.12% MoM to $0.88/kg despite a 4.47% drop in export value ($2.45M USD) and a 4.59% decline in volume (2.79M kg). This marks the third consecutive monthly contraction in both value and weight, though the slight price rebound suggests lingering demand pressure. The declines align with broader trade uncertainty following President Trump’s April 2 executive order imposing global tariffs, which may have disrupted shipments. Paraguay’s raw hides trade remains volatile, with cumulative 2025 exports down sharply from January’s $2.69M USD peak.

Geographic Concentration & Market Logic

Italy dominates Paraguay's raw hides exports, accounting for 65.7% of value but only 63.9% of weight, signaling a slight premium for higher-grade shipments. China, the second-largest destination, shows a tighter value-weight gap (21.3% vs. 23.8%), reflecting its role as a bulk processing hub. The absence of extreme disparities suggests Paraguay’s trade is balanced between quality and volume, with Italy absorbing higher-value hides while China focuses on cost-efficient raw material processing. This structure indicates a supply chain optimized for diversified demand, leveraging Italy’s premium market and China’s scale. Strategic priority: maintain quality differentiation to sustain pricing power in key markets.

Paraguay HS Code 410411 Breakdown & Value Logic

yTrade data reveals HS Code 41041114 (tanned/crust bovine/equine hides in wet state) dominates Paraguay's April 2025 exports, capturing 100% of volume (2.79M units) and value ($2.45M) under parent code 410411. The absence of unit price data suggests a bulk-driven market, where volume outweighs premium pricing—typical for raw hide exports. The remaining sub-codes are negligible, reinforcing a focus on unsplit, full-grain wet-blue hides as Paraguay’s key commodity. This confirms a low-margin, high-volume trade reliant on scalable raw material output rather than value-added processing.
