A memorandum of understanding has been signed between Shypmax and the Federation of Indian Export Organizations (FIEO) to support micro, small and medium enterprise (MSME) exporters in India. These MSMEs will be able to register and showcase their products on the Indian Business Portal (IBP) and will further avail 15% discount on routing service tariffs for express cross-border shipments. The service will expedite cost-effective cross border e-commerce exports.
Dr. Ajay Sahai, Director General & CEO, FIEO, said that the progress of e-commerce businesses requires seamless supply chains that act as the building blocks for digital selling. There is a shift in focus toward technology-enabled tools and state-of-the-art warehousing to ensure faster last-mile deliveries. Our aim is to handhold artisans, women entrepreneurs, startups and MSMEs even in far-flung areas to develop their orientation towards exports, so that we exploit the huge potential of e-commerce retail exports and suitably reward our exquisite craftsmen, artisans and women entrepreneurs. I invite exporters to showcase their products on Indian Business Portal and avail the exclusive benefits of this association with Shypmax to ship effectively and efficiently.” Exporters can access these services including creating pickup requests, preparing shipments, and making online payments through a dedicated Shypmax banner on the Indian Business Portal website. In addition, Shypmax will provide helpdesk support to first-time exporters and MSMEs on customs regulations in the Middle East, Africa and Asia, as well as the required paperwork for shipping.
