Gandhinagar : Gujarat govt has approved the establishment of a dedicated Gujarat Export Promotion Council (GEPC) to help MSMEs, startups and entrepreneurs access international markets and strengthen the state’s export competitiveness. The council will function as a special purpose vehicle (SPV) under the industries and mines department, and provide exporters with a single institutional platform for market intelligence, business consultancy, technical assistance, marketing, certification and trade finance, govt said in a statement on Thursday.
An IMD notification issued on Nov 3 said GEPC will be incorporated as a wholly state-owned, non-profit private limited company. In its May 2025 report, Gujarat State Institution for Transformation (GRIT) recommended the creation of a dedicated export promotion institution. The move follows recommendations by a task force constituted to enhance the competitiveness of Gujarat’s manufacturing sector, which identified export development as one of the three key pillars of industrial growth.
The council will provide market-entry strategies, mentoring, handholding, and business consultancy, and facilitate participation in domestic and international trade fairs.
