Uruguay's Dairy Exports Nearing Historic Revenue Records in 2025

Between January and November 2025, Uruguay's dairy industry recorded revenues of $881.5 million. This represents a 14% increase compared to the same period in 2024.

Uruguay is approaching a new milestone in its dairy export revenues, potentially surpassing the previous record set in 2022. The increase in export value is attributed to higher demand for Uruguayan dairy products globally.

The growth in the dairy sector is significant as it underscores Uruguay's strengthened position in the global dairy market. The government and industry stakeholders have been focusing on expanding market access and improving product quality to maintain this upward trend.

Uruguay's dairy exports include a range of products, with milk powder, cheese, and butter being the most significant contributors to the revenue. The country's strategic trade partnerships have also played a crucial role in this growth.
