Exploring the Trends in Indian Floriculture Exports: Review of the Volume and Value Dynamics of the Key International Importers in the Industry

India has emerged as a significant player in the global floriculture trade, leveraging its diverse agro-climatic conditions and skilled labour. This research paper provides a comprehensive analysis of the countries importing Indian flowers, examining trends in both quantity and monetary value from 2015 to 2025. Utilizing data primarily from the Agricultural and Processed Food Products Export Development Authority (APEDA) and the Ministry of Commerce & Industry, alongside market trend projections, the study identifies key importing nations, their historical growth patterns, and the underlying factors driving demand. Findings indicate a consistent growth trajectory for Indian floriculture exports, albeit with market-specific fluctuations. The United States, Netherlands, United Arab Emirates, and the United Kingdom are identified as consistently dominant markets, each serving distinct roles in the global supply chain. The paper throws light on emerging trajectories, opportunities and impediments for instance logistics and plant protection criterions, and provides key recommendations for augmenting the export competency of India in the international floriculture market.
