Peruvian exports reached US$47.237 billion between January and July this year, representing a 14.8% increase compared to the same period last year, the Central Reserve Bank (BCR) reported.

The issuing entity highlighted that this outcome was supported by prices, which increased 12.3%, particularly of traditional products (+18%), and by volume, which rose 2.2%, especially of non-traditional goods (+22%).

In July 2025, total exports value amounted to US$7.188 billion, representing a 4.3% year-on-year increase, mainly due to the rise in the average export price (+11.6%).

Imports

On the other hand, the BCR noted that imports increased 11.9% year-on-year in July, reaching US$5.084 billion, mainly due to higher purchases of industrial inputs, capital goods, as well as durable and non-durable consumer goods.

Regarding the trade balance, in the 12 months up to July 2025, a surplus of US$26.405 billion was recorded.

This amount was US$6.265 billion higher than that registered in the same month of the previous year.

On a monthly basis, the trade surplus in goods amounted to US$2.103 billion in July, the BCR concluded.
