Colombia’s export sector recorded a strong acceleration in March 2026, with year-over-year growth rising to 20.90%, up from 11.40% in February 2026. The data, updated on 05 May 2026, show that the pace of export expansion has almost doubled in just one month on a year-over-year basis.
Both figures compare each month’s exports with the same month a year earlier. February’s 11.40% increase reflected a solid improvement over February 2025, but March’s 20.90% jump versus March 2025 indicates a significantly stronger external performance as the first quarter drew to a close.
The latest reading suggests that Colombia’s international trade position is gaining momentum, with exports providing a firmer contribution to overall economic activity heading into the rest of 2026.
