APEDA, working closely with the Uttarakhand government, has enabled logistical assistance and policy backing for the state's processed food exporters. The recent Iraqi shipment underscores the impact of these measures.
Abhishek Dev, APEDA chairman, noted that logistics costs remain a key challenge for land‑locked states. Collaborative efforts are underway to craft a state‑level agricultural export policy that includes transport subsidies and streamlined procedures, aiming to improve competitiveness.
