Trade figures are what each country reported to the UN (Comtrade), in US dollars. Imports are generally valued including cost, insurance and freight. A country is shown for a year only if it has reported. Growth compares the latest year with 2022. Company counts are companies listed on ExporterIQ and are not the whole market.
