Geographic Concentration & Market Logic

The United States dominates Paraguay's Wood Charcoal exports, accounting for 24.54% of value but only 17.92% of weight, signaling a premium market demanding higher-grade or specialized product specifications. The UK and Germany follow with similar value-weight gaps, reinforcing a focus on quality-driven demand. In contrast, Brazil shows a bulk-hub pattern (15.82% weight vs. 4.21% value), likely serving as a processing or re-export node for raw materials. The trade structure reveals a split strategy: premium markets (US/EU) absorb high-value shipments, while regional partners (Brazil, Chile) handle volume-driven flows. This suggests Paraguay’s supply chain is dual-optimized—prioritizing margins in key markets and cost efficiency elsewhere.
