Salvadoran exports to Morocco have registered strong growth, rising from US$576,000 to US$21 million, according to Silvia Cuéllar, president of COEXPORT El Salvador. This increase reflects the progress of salvadoran companies in seeking new markets and the potential of salvadoran products beyond traditional markets.
Cuéllar explained that this trend is part of a broader dynamic in national exports, in which various sectors are increasing their international presence. Among the sectors experiencing the most growth are agriculture, sugar, coffee, metalworking, plastics, food, and pharmaceutical and chemical products.
The COEXPORT representative noted that 13 international destinations are currently showing growth, each related to specific products. This indicates that expansion is not concentrated in a single market, but rather that opportunities exist for different sectors of salvadoran production.
The case of Morocco stands out due to the considerable increase in sales value. According to Cuéllar, the market grew from approximately US$576,000 to US$21 million, a growth that demonstrates how some destinations can become more important for salvadoran exporters.
In the sugar sector, Cuéllar mentioned Georgia and Senegal as markets showing opportunities for salvadoran products. In the case of Georgia, sugar exports reached around US$9 million, while Senegal also appears as a destination with growth potential.
Salvadoran coffee is also expanding its reach. Among the markets mentioned by the president of COEXPORT are South Africa, Romania, and Armenia, countries where there is greater commercial activity for this product.
Diversifying destinations allows salvadoran exporters to find new opportunities to sell their production and expand their participation in international trade. Furthermore, access to different markets can open the door for more salvadoran companies and sectors to join the export sector.
For COEXPORT, the performance of these markets confirms the importance of continuing to identify business opportunities and strengthening the presence of Salvadoran products abroad. The surge in Morocco, along with the dynamism observed in other destinations, presents an opportunity to further expand and diversify the country’s exports.
