The government said the export performance in BRICS and partner-country markets indicates that products from Uttar Pradesh are establishing a stronger presence internationally. It added that further gains would depend on improving the quality and competitiveness of products while making the export ecosystem more efficient.
"Strengthening quality standards, modern packaging, logistics, testing facilities, branding, and international trade processes will be important for increasing exports," the release said.
The state government said such measures could particularly benefit micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs), export-oriented units and local producers by enabling them to access a wider pool of international buyers.
The BRICS engagement also provides Uttar Pradesh an opportunity to diversify its export markets and build stronger trade linkages with emerging economies. Greater integration of district-level production clusters with global supply chains, supported by improved logistics and testing infrastructure, could help local businesses scale up their international operations.
The government said strengthening these capabilities would help MSMEs and local products gain greater access to global markets, potentially supporting investment, employment generation and sustained export growth across the state. (ANI)
