Agriculture Marketing Board (APAMB) has inked a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with Dubai-based Lulu Hypermarket in a bid to promote the export of agriculture and allied sector products from Arunachal Pradesh.

The Mou was signed in New Delhi on Friday on the sidelines of the World Food India 2023 event, officials told The Kashmir Monitor on Saturday.

Arunachal Pradesh Chief Minister Pema Khandu posted on X: "Delighted to share that Arunachal Pradesh Agriculture Marketing Board (APAMB) has signed a five-year MoU with Lulu Hypermarket LLC, Dubai, UAE, for supply of oranges and vegetables to Gulf countries."

"This agreement paves the way for supply of oranges and vegetables to Gulf countries, signifying an important milestone in agriculture and market linkage," he said.

"The MoU shall provide opportunities to our farmers to further extend their market presence on a global scale and also make agriculture more lucrative for them," he said.

The MoU, which is for five years, primarily covers the export of orange, pumpkin and some other products from the state to the Gulf countries through the extensive network of Lulu Hypermarkets, one of the leading and diversified business conglomerates with more than 200 hypermarkets across the globe and a turnover of USD 8.5 billion, reports The Kashmir Monitor.
