Sales of Brazilian Stones Abroad Reach Revenues of USD 1.11 Billion in 2023
In a challenging scenario, the Brazilian natural stone industry recorded revenues of USD 1.11 billion in exports in 2023. The data is provided by the Brazilian Center of Natural Stone Exporters (Centrorochas). The figure reflects the resilience of the sector, which, after meeting pent-up demand in the post-pandemic period, keeps facing old problems such as logistical obstacles.
According to the President of Centrorochas, Tales Machado, the re-establishment of the segment as a consequence of the post-pandemic boom was expected. “Many economic segments suffered the impacts of the pandemic immediately. In the stone industry, I would venture to say it is happening now. What reassures us is that this effect is produced as the re-establishment of revenues to pre-Covid levels,” he explained.
