India’s thriving economy, driven by a growing middle class, rapid urbanization, and robust government initiatives, presents Canadian exporters with a wealth of opportunities. As Canada seeks to diversify its trade partners and reduce reliance on traditional markets, India emerges as a strategic destination for Canadian goods and expertise. Here are some key insights and opportunities for Canadian exporters:

  • Young Workforce: Two-thirds of India’s population is under 35, creating a dynamic consumer base and a skilled labor force for collaboration.
  • Middle-Class Expansion: By 2030, India’s middle class is expected to reach 386 million people, increasing demand for high-quality products and services.
