In CY2011 Paraguay’s imports of food and beverage products were valued at US$634 million, showing a 15 percent increase from 2010 imports.
Paraguay has an important agricultural sector; however, the number of food and beverage processors is quite limited. Therefore, the country strongly depends on food and beverage imports. Food and beverage imports from the U.S. are projected to reach 30 million in 2013. Leading U.S. products will be beer, whiskey, vodka, confectionary items, mixed fruit preparations and pasta.
