About Yugalinks

Yugalinks turns published international import-export data into practical, reusable datasets and tools. We organize complex country, product, market, and corridor information so MSMEs, researchers, developers, and analysts can understand international commerce and use the data in real-world applications.

Our goal is to simplify international commerce and import-export analysis by making difficult-to-use data easier to explore, analyze, and apply. The underlying observations come from published sources; Yugalinks prepares them for clearer analysis while preserving source attribution and provider terms.

Dataset description

Annual price and quantity observations for products moving between exporter-importer pairs.

What this dataset helps answer

• —How did the reported unit value change over time?
• —How does a lane compare with its wider market?
• —How many suppliers had price observations?

How to read a row

One exporter, importer, HS6 product, and year.

Key fields include: year, exporter_iso3, importer_iso3, hs_code, unit_value_usd_per_ton, quantity_metric_tons, trade_value_usd, market_median_price_usd_per_ton, price_vs_median_pct, num_price_competitors.

At a glance

Construction and provenance

Reported country, product, year, quantity, and value observations are sourced from the OECD Balanced International Merchandise Trade Statistics (BIMTS) HS2017-6D release. Where the dataset contains country-pair context such as distance, borders, or language relationships, those attributes are sourced from CEPII reference data where documented.

Yugalinks organizes these observations into analysis-ready country, product, market, route, price, and risk views. Calculated indicators are derived from the reported observations and supporting reference fields. They are intended for comparison and investigation, not as guaranteed forecasts or recommendations.

Interpretation notes

Price fields are calculated from reported value and quantity where available. A unit value is an observed value-per-quantity measure, not a quoted offer.
