Honey is a compound, used by humans for over ten thousand years for therapeutic purposes and food, with variable characteristics depending on the species of bees and nectar used for its production. The objective of this paper is to analyze the role of Ceará state in the Brazilian honey export market in the period from 2001 to 2021. For this analysis, three main parameters were chosen, the revealed comparative advantage indicator, which presents the export performance of a particular product in a region, the coverage rate, which demonstrates a relationship between imports and exports of this product by the region and the export performance indicator, which has the function, to evaluate the behavior of trade of this product in the region in a pre-established period of time. The data were obtained through the Comexstat platform and analyzed through the Excel table platform. It was observed that Ceará in 2021, the last year analyzed, was the 6th largest state in honey exports, with more than forty-seven million kilograms exported, higher than the year of 2001, initial year of the analyses, where it exported approximately 2.5 million kilograms, presenting an ascendant and competitive profile. Therefore, its production in time tends to increase and its space in the Brazilian commerce of the product has been consolidating with the years.
