This document provides a summary of the different aspects of the wheat flour industry in Latin America and Caribbean. It includes production, importation, exportation, flour fortification, and consumption of flour food products as well as commerce between countries in the region and between countries and other continents and trade agreements that affect or may affect the market of wheat flour in the region.
