Union Minister of Commerce and Industry Piyush Goyal announced that India is preparing to host dedicated trade fairs in countries that are partners in existing Free Trade Agreements (FTAs).

Further details regarding the schedule and specific partner countries slated for the initial phase of the trade fair rollout are expected to be announced by the ministry in due course.
