OCTOBER 2016 II THE DOLLAR BUSINESS 29
Call it continuation of a tradition dedicated to India's foreign trade, this year too, The Dollar Business trekked far and wide to explore some of the lesser known export clusters of India. And like every other year in the past, this year too saw us digging out some unheard facts from across these hotspots of India's exports. As enthusiasts of foreign trade, it is but necessary for us to understand the opportunities and challenges that these export clusters face. It is the government's goal to make these clusters the strong pole that will help the nation vault over the ambitious $900 billion bar in exports by FY2020. Is the government 'walking the talk' when it comes to improving the global competitiveness of these clusters? Are the central and state agencies fulfilling their mandates of creating common facilities to help small entrepreneurs explore global markets? Are initiatives like 'Make in India' and 'Skill India' making a difference on the ground? These export clusters, which contribute significantly to India's export basket, lack the visibility and the attention they deserve. For the third year in a row, The Dollar Business explores the length and breadth of the country to bring to its readers some ground realities from a handful of India's less-celebrated clusters of export excellence.
