On the demand side, exporters and strategic planners focusing on raw silk in Paraguay face a number of questions. Which countries are supplying raw silk to Paraguay? How important is Paraguay compared to others in terms of the entire global and regional market? How much do the imports of raw silk vary from one country of origin to another in Paraguay? On the supply side, Paraguay also exports raw silk. Which countries receive the most exports from Paraguay? How are these exports concentrated across buyers? What is the value of these exports and which countries are the largest buyers? This report was created for strategic planners, international marketing executives and import/export managers who are concerned with the market for raw silk in Paraguay. With the globalization of this market, managers can no longer be contented with a local view. Nor can managers be contented with out-of-date statistics which appear several years after the fact. Icon Group has developed a proprietary methodology, based on macroeconomic and trade models, to estimate the market for raw silk for those countries serving Paraguay via exports, or supplying from Paraguay via imports. It does so for the current year based on a variety of key historical indicators and econometric models.
