Costa Rica’s export value saw robust growth, rising from $1.4 billion in 1990 to $9.3 billion in 2007, driven by agricultural products like bananas and coffee, alongside burgeoning electronics exports. The economic downturn in 2009 led to a drop to $8.7 billion but was followed by recovery, reaching $11.4 billion by 2012 due to diversification into medical equipment and high-value goods.
A remarkable increase occurred post-2020, with export values surging to $19 billion in 2023. This growth aligns with the country’s focus on sustainable products and high-tech manufacturing, cementing its reputation as a competitive exporter in niche markets.
