GJEPC held a workshop at Zaveri Bazaar, Mumbai, on 25th November to introduce its new initiative, How and Why to Export, designed to guide aspiring exporters in the gem and jewellery trade. The programme aims to build practical understanding of export procedures, compliance, and government support, strengthening opportunities for MSMEs and widening India’s exporter base. It also supports the shared goal of the IIJS and MSME teams to help non-exporter members transition into global markets.
GJEPC officials delivered an in-depth presentation on three themes. The first explained why the Council is vital for exporters, outlining its role across trade facilitation, policymaking, international outreach, and market intelligence. The second offered a clear roadmap to starting exports, covering the IEC, documentation, logistics, finance, and compliance. The final segment detailed government schemes available to exporters, including credit support and MSME focused programmes.
The initiative signals GJEPC’s continued effort to prepare new entrants for global trade. The Council will roll out more sessions across major trading hubs in the months ahead.
