Argentina Food and Beverage Sector Report 2018/2019

Argentina is one of the world's largest producers and exporters of food and beverages, ranking among the ten biggest producers of vegetable oils, soybean by-products, pasta and wine on a global scale. The food and beverage sector has a key socio-economic role for Argentina, accounting for 3.9% of GDP, 5.8% of formal employment, and 30.7% of national exports in 2017. Given their high correlation with the state of the domestic market, sales of food and beverages have suffered as a result of the slowdown of the economy as a whole since 2014, stubbornly high inflation and the depreciation of the national currency against the US dollar, which has restricted the disposable income of households. A partial relief has come from the trade liberalisation measures of the government since end-2015, which have encouraged local producers to pursue export-led growth to mitigate sluggish domestic demand.
