E-commerce players being roped in for export push

To ensure that more geographies within the country benefit from external trade and give greater push to the Districts as Export Hub Scheme (DEH), the department of commerce will be collaborating with various e-commerce giants to link local producers to global supply chains.

As part of the initiative the Directorate General of Foreign Trade (DGFT) on Thursday signed a Memorandum of Understanding with Amazon to co-create capacity building sessions, training and workshops for small and medium producers in districts identified by the government.
