Amazon Crosses $20 Billion in Exports From India Before 2025 Goal

Amazon announced that exports from Indian sellers through its platform have crossed $20 billion, meeting its 2025 goal earlier than planned. The exports were made under the company’s Global Selling programme, which began in 2015 and helps small and medium businesses sell in foreign markets. Indian exporters using the platform currently reach buyers in 18 countries, including the US, UK, Germany, and the UAE.

Seller Network and Distribution

The number of Indian exporters on Amazon has increased to about 2 lakh, up 33% from last year. These sellers operate across 28 states and 7 union territories. Delhi, Maharashtra, Tamil Nadu, Uttar Pradesh, Gujarat, and Rajasthan account for a large portion of the total exporters. The US remains the biggest market for Indian goods, followed by the UK, Germany, and Canada.

Exports and Product Range

Amazon said Indian exporters shipped nearly $7 billion worth of goods this year alone. Key categories include health and personal care, beauty, toys, home goods, apparel, and furniture, each showing growth between 35% and 45% annually. The platform has helped sellers ship over 75 crore Indian-made products globally since the programme began.

Contribution from Smaller Towns

Exports from smaller cities have risen sharply. Karur, Panipat, Erode, Anand, and Junagadh are among the emerging hubs. In 2024, Karur exported goods worth around $147 million, while Junagadh and Anand recorded exports of $60 million and $44 million, respectively. These numbers show a shift in export activity beyond major cities.

Trade Conditions and Next Goal

The announcement comes despite higher US import tariffs imposed in August, which impacted sectors like textiles and jewellery. Amazon has now set a new export target of $80 billion by 2030. It said exports are also expanding into other regions, including the Middle East, Europe, and Asia-Pacific.
