How concentrated Senegal'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 — Senegal's trade_flows records don't carry product-level detail to break this down further.

Firm-level entry/exit/survival dynamics for Senegal'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 Senegal against all 68 covered countries.
| Metric | Latest value | Year | Trend (2000–2012) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Number of exporting firms | 895 | 2012 | |
| Incumbent exporting firms | 557 | 2012 | |
| New entrant exporting firms | 338 | 2012 | |
| Exiting exporting firms | 295 | 2012 | |
| Firm entry rate | 37.8% | 2012 | |
| Firm exit rate | 34.6% | 2012 | |
| Exporter concentration (EDD HHI, 0–1 scale) | 0.080 | 2012 | |
| Product categories exported (distinct HS4 codes) | 758 | 2012 | |
| Avg. export value per exporting firm | $1.6M | 2012 | |
| Median export value per exporting firm | $82.5K | 2012 | |
| Avg. destination countries per exporting firm | 3.4 | 2013 | |
| Median destination countries per exporting firm | 2.0 | 2013 |
The 2012 mean is 19x 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.
