A compact, high-income economy that receives more visitors than it has residents. Covers hotel and restaurant channels, access requirements and a directory of Uruguayan importers.
Uruguay is a compact, high-income economy with about 3.4 million residents. Its distinguishing feature for a supplier lies in tourism: the country received around 3.6 million visitors — more than its own resident population — with revenue close to USD 2,040 million. The supermarket sector turns over on the order of USD 2,500 million a year, a useful reference for sizing demand for packaged food.
Final consumer spending on restaurants is estimated on the order of USD 1,500 to 2,500 million a year. The range is deliberately wide: for a market of this size the available sources offer orders of magnitude rather than precise figures, and this study flags that wherever it occurs. The document covers the structure of the market and its channels, access requirements by supplier origin and the categories with the best prospects, and includes a directory of Uruguayan importers and distributors in the HORECA channel.
