Question
We manufacture and package candy, cookies, fudge, chocolate bars and preserves and are looking to import into India, China and Japan from the UK.

Tarika,
You need to run a market research on India to find the companies that your company can sell it’s products to. Contact your local UKTI for assistance on this.
