Peru Balance of Trade
Peru's balance of trade reached $2.58 billion in August 2025. This marks the highest surplus since November 2024 and represents a 19.8% increase from July 2025's $2.15 billion. The growth is attributed to strong export performance particularly in mining and agriculture. Copper prices and high international demand boosted mining exports by 16.6% in early 2025. Agricultural exports rose 24% in the first five months of 2025 due to robust global demand. Peru's record low balance of trade was -$504.7 million in January 2016 and record high was $3.02 billion in November 2024.
