With the growing demand for Indian products, including jute, globally, sellers are opting for simple exporting processes through e-commerce. This enables them to sell on international e-commerce marketplaces like Amazon USA, UK, Singapore and more – allowing them to reach millions of customers without setting up a warehouse or physical store abroad.
