Chhattisgarh Poised for Agricultural Export Boom with New APEDA Office

The Agricultural and Processed Food Products Export Development Authority (APEDA) has made a decisive move to enhance Chhattisgarh's agricultural export potential. On Monday, the agency inaugurated a regional office in Raipur aimed at boosting exports of the state's agricultural and processed food items.

Chhattisgarh is renowned for its premium non-basmati rice varieties and Geographical Indication-tagged products, such as Jeeraphool and Nagri Dubraj rice. The state also produces a diverse array of fruits and vegetables, including guava, banana, and dragon fruit, which promise significant global market opportunities.

APEDA's new regional office is set to play a crucial role in facilitating farmers, producer groups, and exporters. By offering export registration, advisory support, market intelligence, and infrastructure development, the office will provide comprehensive assistance to bolster Chhattisgarh's export profile.
