In absolute terms, coffee is the largest export: Central America's coffee exports add up US$ 3.8 billion for 2012, representing 11.6% of the world's banana exports (US$ 32.9 billion).

However, in relative terms -- or percentage of the world's total -- Central America accounts for 24.36% of the world's banana exports (US$ 2.7 billion out of $US 11.1 billion for 2012). Costa Rica alone provides 11.98% of the world's banana exports (US$ 1.33 billion).

Central America's main export products include agricultural goods such as coffee, bananas, sugar, and tropical fruits, as well as textiles and garments. The export of these products has significantly influenced the region's economies by generating foreign exchange, creating jobs, and fostering agricultural development. However, reliance on a narrow range of exports can make these economies vulnerable to global market fluctuations and environmental challenges.
