Most Indian SMEs and MSMEs have export-ready products but lack the knowledge, documentation, and financial infrastructure to access global markets. Export procedures, DGFT compliance, IEC registration, and international payment terms create barriers that prevent capable businesses from going global.
Without export readiness, Indian businesses miss out on higher margins, foreign exchange earnings, and global buyer relationships. India's export potential remains untapped at the SME level despite world-class manufacturing and service capabilities.
BlueberryFM's Export Readiness Engineering programme guides Indian SMEs through every step of the export journey — from IEC registration and DGFT compliance to export finance, buyer discovery, and international expansion.
IEC (Import Export Code) is a mandatory 10-digit code issued by DGFT required for all export and import transactions in India. Without IEC, customs clearance and foreign remittances are not possible.
Key export documents include: Commercial Invoice, Packing List, Bill of Lading or Airway Bill, Certificate of Origin, Shipping Bill, and Letter of Credit or payment instrument.
SCOMET (Special Chemicals, Organisms, Materials, Equipment and Technologies) is India's export control list. Certain goods require special DGFT licences before export. BlueberryFM screens all client products for SCOMET compliance.
With BlueberryFM's Export Readiness Engineering programme, most SMEs are export-ready within 30 to 60 days depending on product category and documentation status.
