Geographic Concentration & Market Logic

Brazil dominates Paraguay's uncoated paper exports, accounting for 67% of trade frequency and 62.6% of weight, but its value share (62.3%) aligns closely with volume—revealing a bulk hub dynamic where Brazil serves as a cost-efficient processing or transit point for raw materials. Chile (22.8% value vs. 22.3% weight) mirrors this pattern, while Peru’s slight premium (12.1% value vs. 11.9% weight) hints at marginal demand for higher-grade paper. The absence of a significant value-volume gap across key markets suggests Paraguay’s export strategy prioritizes scale over specialization, likely feeding regional manufacturing or repackaging chains.
