In 2024, Ecuador continued to heavily rely on imported fatty acid methyl ester (FAME), with top exporting countries being the USA, Germany, Italy, Colombia, and Spain. The high Herfindahl-Hirschman Index (HHI) indicates a Market Top 5 Importing Countries and Market Competition (HHI) Analysis with significant concentration. However, the compound annual growth rate (CAGR) from 2020-2024 was negative at -10.73%, with a steep decline in growth rate from 2023-2024 at -50.19%. This suggests a challenging Market Top 5 Importing Countries and Market Competition (HHI) Analysis environment for FAME imports in Ecuador, potentially influenced by various factors affecting demand and supply dynamics.
