1) Fish, animal meal
2) Gold
3) Copper Ore
Peru exports nearly 10% of the world’s fish supply and 33% of the world’s animal meal and pellets (mostly fish product/byproduct). They vastly out export Chile, United States, Germany and Denmark. The top importers are China (25%), Germany (6.8%), Norway (6.5%), Japan (5.6%) and Taiwan (5%). Their large export comes from the fact many of their cites and towns live right at the edge of the coast.
Another large export of Peru is gold. Their gold is about 20% of their entire exports although they are only 10th in the world to export gold. They make most of their money off of their gold exports. This is an important export because gold is always sellable.
Lastly Peru exports 16% of the worlds supply of copper ore. This is 18% of Peru’s main export. I would say this is one of the most important exports because they are the only second to Chile; although they only produce half as much copper ore. Many of Peru’s other exports are about 5% or less of their entire exports.
