The Vice Minister of Marketing and Food Production, Francisco Fonseca, recently stated that Venezuela currently has a 100% food supply.

According to the official, supermarket shelves are fully stocked, offering greater availability of products and brands in the national market.

Fonseca stated: “Today we can speak of 100 % shelf supply,” the official maintained, attributing this situation to policies implemented by the National Council for Productive Economy.

The Vice Minister highlighted the effectiveness of state-run food distribution programs such as the Sovereign Field Fairs, the Mercal stores, and the network of the Venezuelan Food Production and Distribution Company (PDVAL).

According to Fonseca, the country currently has sufficient capacity to supply the domestic market with animal protein and also projects exports to neighboring countries. “Venezuela has the capacity to export all its animal protein to neighboring countries because we already have a significant market supply,” he added.

He noted that “domestic chicken production closed 2015 at 294,000 tons, while the goal for this year is to reach 330,000 tons, according to the balance of the first five months.”

It is a fact that official economic decisions are beginning to yield positive results, and this is happening in record time. The Central Bank of Venezuela reported single-digit inflation at the end of May 2026, the lowest inflation rate in the last 19 months.

The publication on the BCV’s official website also notes that the National Consumer Price Index (INPC) registered a month-on-month variation of 6.3 %, adding that “With this marked downward trend, we are entering a path of deceleration for 2026.”

The economic decisions made by President (E) Delcy Rodríguez have been firm so far in 2026. First, the restructuring of the economic team, appointing Calixto Ortega Sánchez as vice president of the area and then the economist Luis Pérez as president of the Central Bank of Venezuela. In addition, there is the call for the restructuring of the external debt and the reintegration of Venezuela into international organizations, such as the World Bank and the IMF, which adds transparency to the process.

This has led to and made possible a series of economic successes, including GDP growth in the first quarter of the year, as well as reaching single-digit inflation in May.

Finally, the Central Bank president had already warned of this, stating, “We are going to have single-digit inflation and a significant slowdown for the rest of the year,” which, according to economic analysts, is a major achievement after only a month in office.

The economic plan focuses primarily on the recovery of the oil and mining industries, which will guarantee economic growth, and secondly on strengthening a more efficient exchange rate system to ensure inflation control and investment in capital goods.

Ultimately, the recovery plan aims for a long period of economic growth with moderate inflation.

The global economic growth could slow by 2.6 % in 2026, according to forecasts from the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD).

According to the UN agency, this would initiate a period of fragility for world trade, falling from 4.7% in 2025 to between 1.5% and 2.5% in 2026, “due to the effects of geopolitical tensions on supply chains, maritime transport, and investment decisions.”

In the current context of geopolitical tensions, high energy prices, along with “transport disruptions, market volatility, and the search for safe-haven assets, will harm investment and demand,” the agency study indicates.

According to UNCTAD, developing economies are the most vulnerable due to uncertainty, increased fuel, food, and fertilizer costs, as well as the devaluation of their currencies, tighter financing conditions, and reduced investor confidence.

At the same time, the agency highlights that “the rise of artificial intelligence masks global trade figures, which were relatively positive at the beginning of the year but relied on products related to that technology, such as semiconductors, servers, and data processing equipment.”

This year, Venezuela’s economic growth could reach 7.4 %, according to projections from the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP). Regarding inflation, the agency indicates it is expected to climb to 271 %.

The data was revealed on Friday in the program’s report, which states that “oil activity is projected to grow by 11.5 %, with crude oil production reaching up to 1,211,000 barrels per day (bpd), a 12 % increase compared to last year’s average of 1,081,000 bpd, according to official figures.”

Regarding non-oil GDP growth, the report places it at 6.9 % and adds that the scenario for this year will be marked by “structural changes in the economic, institutional, and regulatory environment.”

According to the UNDP, the easing of sanctions against Venezuela by the Trump Administration, reflected in a series of OFAC licenses, “has allowed for the reactivation of Venezuelan crude oil sales and access to critical inputs for production.”

Venezuela is preparing to rejoin the international SWIFT payments system following the issuance of licenses 56 and 57 by the U.S. Treasury Department’s Office of Foreign Assets Control, according to economist Elio Córdova.

As is well known, the SWIFT system (Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication) “is a secure global messaging network that allows more than 11,000 banks in over 200 countries to exchange transfer orders, facilitating the secure and standardized movement of capital between countries.”

With this system, international transfers are made to reach their correct destination safely and quickly. According to Córdova, licenses 56 and 57, announced on April 14, “have a positive impact on Venezuela’s economic performance, especially due to the eventual re-entry into the SWIFT system, given that Venezuela is an active member of that entity and these resources will improve economic growth.”

Once the Central Bank of Venezuela can rejoin the international financial system, it will be able to access “external loans, financing, and aid, primarily from organizations such as the International Monetary Fund.” Furthermore, the country will have easier access to “replace parts and components from the rest of the world through imports, including raw materials, capital goods, and technology, so that economic agents can quickly acquire these necessary elements for production in Venezuela without intermediaries.”

El Salvador should have closed 2025 with an economic growth rate of 4 %, instead of the 2.6 % projected by the International Monetary Fund.

The Central American nation, governed by Nayib Bukele, is projected to have achieved this strong economic growth thanks to accelerated GDP growth driven by a boom in domestic and foreign investment.

El Salvador, International Monetary Fund, Nayib Bukele, is said to have experienced this strong economic growth thanks to accelerating GDP growth fueled by a boom in domestic and foreign investment. President Bukele “had managed to transform this economy into one of the safest places in the Americas. Now, after several years of mediocre economic growth, given the country’s level of development (middle-income economies typically grow at high rates), activity is beginning to take off with a force that has surprised even the International Monetary Fund (IMF).”

The organization has expressed surprise at this growth, noting: “The economy is expanding at a faster pace than anticipated, thanks to increased confidence, record remittances, and robust investment.”

In this regard, it is important to highlight the impact of the investment that is expanding rapidly thanks to the stability prevailing in the country, “the legal and civil security that the country has achieved in recent years.”

The International Monetary Fund (IMF) forecasts inflation in Venezuela for 2026 at 682.1 %, as reflected in its “World Economic Outlook” report.

“The international organization has also estimated economic growth of 0.5 % for the year 2025 as a whole and a decline of 3 % for the following year.”

The organization warned that “the effects of hyperinflation, the scarcity of reported data, and uncertainty mean that the macroeconomic indicators estimated and projected by the IMF staff should be interpreted with caution.”

In any case, the IMF forecasts include data on the “central government budget, data from Social Security and the Social Protection Fund for Bank Deposits (FOGADE), and figures from a small group of public companies, including Petróleos de Venezuela.”

At the regional level, the organization forecasts growth of 2.4 % and 2.3 % for Latin American and Caribbean countries in 2025 and 2026, respectively, in response to tariff reductions in most countries in the region.
