 |
ITPO is the premier trade promotion agency of the Government
of India. It provides a broad spectrum of services to
trade and industry so as to catalyse the growth of bilateral
trade, particularly India's exports, and technological
upgradation and modernization of different industry
segments. ITPO accords approval for holding of international
trade fairs in India in order to ensure and facilitate,
inter alia, customs clearance of imported exhibits.
Consultancy is also provided in the form of Action Plans
for promoting exports from different States/Union Territories,
besides the assessment of export potential as well as
the identification of a set of products and techniques
for export promotion.
India Trade Promotion Organisation (ITPO) is synonymous
with the country's trade promotion around the world
all round the year. Indeed at ITPO, the promotion of
trade is an exacting mission, translating into a search
for new frontiers and new horizons in the world of commercial
interactions, both at macro and micro levels. A mission
that finds expression in the successful organisation
of trade exhibitions in India and abroad, buyer-seller
meets, promotion through department stores, contact
promotion and product development programmes apart from
dissemination of information on products and markets.
As the premier trade promotion agency of the Government
of India, the India Trade Promotion Organisation provides

India's exports, and technological upgradation and modernisation

carried out in close co-ordination with the Indian industry
whose promotional needs it seeks to serve.
As a nodal agency of the Government, ITPO accords approval
for holding of international trade fairs in India in
order to ensure and facilitate, inter alia, customs
clearance of imported exhibits. ITPO has been conferred
the status of Mini Ratna by the Government of India.

which register profits for three years in a row.

trade fair complexes with its attendant infrastructural
facilities in the Regional Centres of the country in
