Enterprises foresee a 5.1% nominal increase in exports of goods - 2026
28 January 2026

Summary

Domestic exporting enterprises expect a nominal increase of 5.1% in their exports of goods in 2026, thereby strengthening the growth path observed in International Trade in Goods data in the cumulative period from January to November 2025, when exports grew by 0.6%. 

In terms of Broad Economic Categories (BEC), the largest increases are expected in exports of Capital goods (+12.2%) and Food and beverages (+8.1%).

The results of the Survey on the Perspectives of Export of Goods (IPEB) for 2026, conducted in November 2025, should be interpreted as indicative of trends, as they are based on growth perspectives reported by enterprises in the response period. These expectations may reflect the uncertainty associated with developments in the international economic context.
