Extreme Focus Product Groups

line.gif (3228 bytes)

           Three product groups, viz., textiles, engineering products and chemical products constitute nearly 80% of India’s exports to the region. In the textiles sector, ready-made garments, made-ups, fabrics, yarn, carpets, handicrafts, etc. are fast moving export items. In the engineering sector, automobiles, auto components, electrical appliances, machinery, computer software etc. have good scope for exports. Bulk drugs, pharmaceuticals, dyes and intermediates, agrochemicals, plastic products, naphtha, resins, essential oils, molasses, tyres for buses, trucks & cycles are also important items in the chemical products sector.

           The Programme aims to focus on the following major product groups for enhancing India’s exports to the Latin American region: 

(i)   Textiles including ready-made garments, carpets & handicrafts;

(ii) Engineering products including computer software;

(iii) Chemical products including drugs/pharmaceuticals.

          Based on the feedback from the Indian Missions in the LAC region and the trends in exports during the last few years, a list of specific products for promoting exports to the identified countries has been prepared.  The National Centre for Trade Information (NCTI) has carried out a detailed study/trade analysis of the select countries and the specific focus products identified for each country are at  Annex-III.
