In June 2026, Peru's exports totaled USD 8,906 million, a 23.4 percent year-on-year increase, primarily driven by a 26.6 percent rise in export prices for products like copper and gold. Imports reached USD 5,737 million, up 29.7 percent year-on-year, due to higher volumes of capital and durable consumer goods and increased oil prices. The trade balance for June recorded a monthly surplus of USD 3,169 million, contributing to an accumulated surplus of USD 44.9 billion over the last twelve months. Export volumes decreased by 2.6 percent, attributed to lower mining production, shipping challenges for copper and zinc concentrates, and the impact of the El Niño phenomenon on anchovy availability.

Exports 2. In June, exports totaled USD 8,906 million, a level 23.4 percent higher than that recorded in the same month of 2025. This result was mainly driven by the year-on-year increase in international prices of the main export products, especially copper and gold, which caused an average export price growth of 26.6 percent year-on-year. Higher oil and natural gas prices (associated with the conflict in Iran), as well as the increase in the price of fishmeal (due to lower Peruvian supply in the world market) and lead (due to the silver content present in its shipments), also contributed. Exported volume decreased by 2.6 percent year-on-year, due to lower mining production and the difficulty of shipping copper and zinc concentrates, the impact of the El Niño Phenomenon on anchovy availability, and lower sales of non-traditional agricultural, textile, and iron and steel/metalworking products.

Exports of traditional products amounted to USD 7,112 million in June, registering a year-on-year growth of 30.2 percent. This result was mainly explained by the increase in export prices (33.3 percent year-on-year), driven by higher prices for copper, gold, and lead, the latter favored by the silver content in its shipments. Hydrocarbons also registered higher export prices, in line with the rise in international prices associated with the conflict in the Middle East. However, compared to May, export prices of the main metals showed a correction, reflected in the declines of gold (-7.8 percent), zinc (-4.2 percent), and lead (-8.2 percent), following geopolitical tensions. In terms of volume, the reduction was -2.6 percent and was explained by lower mining production and the difficulty of shipping copper and zinc concentrates; and by the effects of the El Niño Phenomenon on fishmeal and fish oil production.

Agricultural exports reached USD 811 million in June, 1.1 percent above the same month of the previous year, due to the 6.8 percent increase in the average export price. Among the products that most increased their prices were asparagus (15.9 percent) and avocados (7.8 percent) due to climatic problems that affected production in the United States and Europe. The export volume was reduced by 5.3 percent year-on-year due to lower sales of mandarins (-43.6 percent, affected by temperature anomalies), asparagus (-38.1 percent), and cocoa manufactures: i) cocoa butter exports were practically nil compared to USD 13 million last June; ii) the exported volume of chocolates decreased by 81.3 percent; iii) cocoa powder, by 33.1 percent; and iv) roasted cocoa, by 51 percent.

Evolution of blueberry exports from Africa In recent years, African blueberry exports have registered significant growth, which has allowed the continent, as a bloc, to go from being the eighth to the second largest global exporter, after Peru. Morocco and South Africa maintain a dominant position; however, in recent years, the progress of exports from other Southern African countries, specifically Zimbabwe and Namibia, stands out.
BCRP STUDY NOTES No. 57 – August 14, 2026 System No.: INF-2020-000099 Signed with digital certificates issued by RENIEC. The names of the signatories appear on the last page. 7 / 37 Regarding the seasonality of exports from African countries, Morocco, located in the northern hemisphere, concentrates its shipments during the first half of the year. In contrast, the other African countries analyzed, located in the southern hemisphere, export mainly during the second half, coinciding with the season of greater Peruvian supply, competing in the main African destination markets: Europe and, to a lesser extent, Asia. The recent dynamism of Zimbabwe's exports stands out, with a sustained expansion process initiated in 2017. Since 2020, its exports have grown at an average annual rate of 52 percent. Despite this accelerated progress, its development still remains below the boom registered by Peru at the beginning of the 2010s, driven by significant investments from large exporting companies, large-scale irrigation projects (e.g., Chavimochic and Olmos), and a favorable regulatory framework for the rapid expansion of the activity.

The names of the signatories appear on the last page. 8 / 37 For 2026, Zimbabwe is estimated to export around 12 thousand TM of blueberries (according to the article “Forget gold and copper. Africa’s latest boom is in blueberries and oranges” published in The Economist), compared to the 74 thousand TM that Peru reached in 2018, an equivalent year within its expansion trajectory. With this, the growth gap between both countries would widen: while in year 8 Peru exported around 5.2 times the volume of Zimbabwe, in year 9 this relationship would increase to approximately 6.2 times, evidencing a significantly greater acceleration of the Peruvian industry. The development of the industry will depend, to a greater extent, on the execution of irrigation projects, genetic innovation, greater business investment, the strengthening of phytosanitary and quality controls, market diversification, and the reduction of restrictions on access to financing and land. These factors were decisive in the expansion of the Peruvian industry and continue to sustain its growth. In terms of tariffs, access conditions for the main African blueberry exporters are favorable, facing a 0 percent rate in their main destinations, the same rates that Peru currently faces.

In June, iron and steel/metalworking and jewelry exports totaled USD 201 million, representing a growth of 14.9 percent year-on-year. The export price grew by 30.9 percent, in line with higher international metal prices. The imposition of tariffs by the United States continued to affect shipments of copper products, leading to a 12.2 percent reduction in volumes. Lower sales of copper wire (-57.5 percent) and copper rods (-25.7 percent) were recorded. 10. In June, fishery product exports totaled USD 230 million, representing a contraction of 14.8 percent compared to the same month of 2025. Prices continued to decrease (-16.8 percent), as a result of the greater Peruvian supply of squid in international markets. In contrast, the exported volume grew year-on-year by 2.4 percent due to higher shipments of canned squid (51.4 percent), frozen squid (4 percent), and shrimp (41.8 percent). 11. Non-metallic mining product exports registered a drop of 20.4 percent, after totaling USD 74 million. This performance was mainly due to a 19 percent contraction in export volume, and to a lesser extent, a 1.7 percent contraction in export price. Among the products with the largest declines were mineral coal (-49 percent) and calcium phosphate (-7.8 percent). 12. In the region, Peru registered the third largest increase in non-traditional exports in the accumulated 12-month period to June, after Colombia and Mexico. On the other hand, Peru's average annual growth over the last five years was 7.7 percent, the highest in the region after Mexico.

This box aims to estimate the proportion of Peruvian foreign trade that uses maritime routes associated with the Panama Canal, with the objective of approximating the degree of direct exposure of our commercial flows to potential episodes of congestion, operational restrictions, or closures of the canal.
In the case of exports, only shipments made by sea are considered, which represent approximately 71.5 percent of total exports, due to the significant participation of gold, whose exports are mainly carried out by air. Routes that use the Panama Canal are classified as those whose next declared port (i.e., the first port of arrival before the final destination) is located in Panama, the east coast of Central America and North America, or Europe. Likewise, exports whose final destination is Europe or Africa, but whose next declared port is located in Chile, Colombia, or Ecuador, are considered, assuming that these correspond to cabotage operations prior to transit through the Panama Canal. On the other hand, when the next declared port is located in Chile, Colombia, or Ecuador and the final destination corresponds to Asia or the American continent, it is assumed that the cargo does not transit through the Canal. Under these assumptions, it is estimated that, in 2025, 18.1 percent of the total value of exports would have used the Panama Canal.
For the case of imports, only those carried out under the definitive import regime were considered, as they are the only ones that have information on the port of origin. In 2025, these operations represented around 83 percent of the total imported value.
Routes linked to the Panama Canal were classified as those coming from Europe, the Atlantic coast of North America, Panama, and a remainder of Atlantic ports (mainly from Colombia). Under this criterion, it is estimated that for 2025, 29.4 percent of the analyzed imports that go by sea would have used routes that cross the Panama Canal.
