How concentrated Guinea's trade is across its top partner countries, computed from currently-tracked trade flows (not the historical 1997–2015 World Bank dataset). Measures country-to-country concentration only — Guinea's trade_flows records don't carry product-level detail to break this down further.

Firm-level entry/exit/survival dynamics for Guinea's exporting firms, whole economy (not broken down by product) so every figure below is a genuine national rate — never an average across incompatible product categories. See /exporter-dynamics to compare Guinea against all 68 covered countries.
| Metric | Latest value | Year | Trend (2009–2012) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Number of exporting firms | 465 | 2012 | |
| Incumbent exporting firms | 171 | 2012 | |
| New entrant exporting firms | 294 | 2012 | |
| Exiting exporting firms | 253 | 2012 | |
| Firm entry rate | 63.2% | 2012 | |
| Firm exit rate | 59.7% | 2012 | |
| Exporter concentration (EDD HHI, 0–1 scale) | 0.159 | 2012 | |
| Product categories exported (distinct HS4 codes) | 361 | 2012 | |
| Avg. export value per exporting firm | $3.7M | 2012 | |
| Median export value per exporting firm | $15.9K | 2012 | |
| Avg. destination countries per exporting firm | 2.0 | 2013 | |
| Median destination countries per exporting firm | 1.0 | 2013 |
The 2012 mean is 233x the median — a small number of large exporting firms account for most of the export value; the typical firm exports far less than the average figure suggests.
