In the first fifteen days of the month, the company exported a total of 1,456.01 tons of WMP. However, in the second half, Conaprole recorded a significant increase in exports, reaching 11,957.00 tons of WMP shipped abroad.

The main destinations of Conaprole’s exports of LPE are Brazil and Algeria. Brazil leads the ranking of the cooperative’s main destinations, closely followed by Algeria. It is interesting to note that, in the first fifteen days of the month, Conaprole did not export any LPE to Brazil. All exports to this destination were made during the second half of the month.

The growth in sales to Brazil, the largest importer of dairy products in South America, suggests that demand for dairy products remains strong in the international market.
