Cement exports from Bolivia have dropped significantly, falling from US$10.5m in 2017 to just US$0.2m in 2023, as reported by the National Institute of Statistics and the Bolivian Institute of Foreign Trade (IBCE). Bolivia’s main export market is Paraguay, with over 95% of cement exports heading there. The decline reportedly began when the Paraguayan government started to protect its local industry by limiting imports, according to CE NoticiasFinancieras.
