  • Cleveland-Lorain-Elyria, OH (1888PressRelease) April 24, 2025 - With businesses worldwide recalibrating their sourcing strategies amidst evolving trade regulations and market fluctuations, rivexa by mjunction Services Limited (a joint venture between Tata Steel and Steel Authority of India Limited) emerges as a digital export marketplace enabling international brands to source verified Indian suppliers across apparel, home textiles, and industrial goods.

    New Global Trade Order Redirecting Sourcing Towards Indian Markets

    The expedited rollout of the ‘Liberation Day’ tariff program by the United States has elevated the cost of Chinese-sourced goods. JP Morgan notes these protectionist policies, implemented to safeguard domestic production, have catalyzed global buyers to investigate alternative markets offering competitive pricing and transparent supply chains. Analysis from Reuters suggest these extended tariffs have encouraged businesses to expand their supplier diversity for better risk mitigation and supply chain stability.

    With extensive manufacturing capabilities and a favorable policy landscape, India is establishing itself as a compelling sourcing alternative. A January 2024 study conducted for CNBC revealed that 61% of executive managers in the United States preferred India to China when identical manufacturing expertise existed in both nations.

    Furthermore, 56% of those survey participants expressed a preference for India over China to meet their supply chain needs during the next five-year period. As per KPMG and EY, Indian exports are projected to reach a USD 1 trillion goal by 2030 – driven by manufacturing growth supported under the Production Linked Incentive policy.

    China vs. India : Comparative Perspective

    What the world is witnessing is the changing face of Asian manufacturing. China still has a leading position as a top global producer, but recent developments in trade tariffs are prompting global re-evaluations.

    Leading consultancies like BCG and major media organizations including CNN and BBC have observed India’s enhanced reputation for supply chain reliability paired with its cost-efficient production capabilities is increasingly positioning the country as a credible alternative to Chinese manufacturers.

    MSN’s market data reinforces this perspective, documenting consistent growth in the demand for ‘Made in India’ - India’s quality manufactured products across multiple industrial sectors.
