Potential opportunities for exporters of Uttar Pradesh considering Japan as a target market

Select sectors are identified as potential opportunities which may drive growth of exports from Uttar Pradesh to Japan. The sectors are selected based on the import demand in Japan, India’s exports to Japan and UP’s exports to Japan.

The priority sectors shortlisted are classified into two categories, based on the relevant strategy for export promotion. The sectors with significant manufacturing and exports volume to Japan are strategically selected for scaling up of exports. The sectors with appreciable manufacturing volume, but low level of exports from UP to Japan are selected for market diversification into Japan. The table below summarizes the top 10 sectors shortlisted for UP’s exporters who intend to undertake exports in Japan. Electricals & electronics, Engineering goods, autocomponents, organic chemicals and apparels sectors are shortlisted for scaling up. Similarly, Pharmaceuticals, Plastics & its articles, Gems & Jewellery, Articles of iron & steel, and Furniture sectors are selected for diversification. A comprehensive detail for the select 10 sectors at a HS 6 level is described in annexure 3. With the India Japan CEPA in place, there are potential opportunities to grow bilateral trade and investment. The CEPA enables Uttar Pradesh to leverage its export capabilities in select sectors which resonates with the consumer demands in Japan. At a global level, the priority sectors are classified on based on their RCA scores to identify the relevant export promotion strategies. The traditional sectors for which UP has a competitive advantage are selected for scaling up globally.

Further, to support exporters of the state in scaling of exports, the government of Uttar Pradesh through Export Promotion Bureau – Uttar Pradesh and Uttar Pradesh Export Promotion Council has planned to undertake the following initiatives: 1. Identifying and connecting with Sectoral bodies (for priority sectors) based in Japan 2. Identifying importers and their sourcing needs 3. List of key events where UP's exporters shall participate 4. Facilitate visit of Japan’s Importers to UP in key trade events that may be organized by Government of Uttar Pradesh 5. Identification of online platforms where UP's exporters should register for exporting their products to meet sourcing requirements of UK’s importers
