Aramex Signs MoU with AP Government to Accelerate MSME Exports and Expand the State's Global Market Access

The Government of Andhra Pradesh has signed an MoU with Aramex, a leading global logistics and transportation solutions provider, to strengthen the state's export ecosystem and support its ambitious goal of increasing the number of exporters from 8,000 to 100,000 over the next 12 months.

The MoU positions Aramex as a strategic logistics and export-enabling partner in Andhra Pradesh's efforts to transform the state into a major export hub and empower Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) to access international markets. The MoU is designed to create new global opportunities for MSMEs by combining Aramex's international logistics capabilities with the state's efforts to strengthen the MSME ecosystem.

The MoU was signed in Vijayawada in the presence of Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu at the Andhra Pradesh MSME Growth Summit 2026 as part of the state's ongoing efforts to strengthen its export ecosystem and create new global opportunities for MSMEs. The collaboration will focus on improving export readiness, expanding global market access, supporting cross-border trade, and enabling first-time exporters through capacity-building and market linkage support.

Commenting on the partnership, Mr. Percy Avari, India Head, Aramex, said,"This partnership will also play an important role in enabling first-time exporters, and we fully support the State's initiative to ensure that more MSMEs and entrepreneurs can access export opportunities and realize their potential in global markets. Through capacity building and market linkage support, we look forward to helping the State achieve its goal of increasing its exporter base to 100,000.”

The MoU reflects Andhra Pradesh's focus on building a robust export ecosystem by bringing together public and private sector stakeholders to support exporters through training, market access, logistics enablement and business development initiatives. Through this partnership, Aramex will support the state's efforts to create a scalable framework that helps MSMEs expand beyond domestic markets and become global sellers.
