AGP Executive Report
Last update: 3 hours agoWorld Cup Countdown (Paraguay in focus): With kickoff just 30 days away, the full 48-team field is now set and Paraguay’s path is clear: the U.S. hosts Paraguay on June 12 at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, with the U.S. also facing Australia and Turkey in Group D. Local Delivery (LA logistics): Los Angeles is pushing match-day readiness hard—Metro is selling commemorative TAP cards and launching direct buses to games, while SoFi Stadium is still finishing its FIFA-compliant pitch after removing corner seating and shipping in sod. Trade & Agriculture (EU pressure on Mercosur): The EU moved to block Brazilian animal product exports from September over antimicrobial rules, a reminder that Paraguay’s Mercosur trade gains can still face regulatory headwinds. Paraguay–Philippines Business Push: Paraguay and the Philippines signed visa-waiver and business cooperation deals, with Philippine firms eyeing Paraguay for agriculture, electronics, and BPO—plus a REDIEX-linked business matching push. Weather Watch: A “super El Niño” is increasingly likely, raising the odds of major rainfall and temperature swings later in 2026.
