Meghalaya ferries heavy Pineapple shipment to Dubai

In a boost for India’s perishables export and agri-logistics sector, Meghalaya flagged off a 2-tonne consignment of premium organic pineapples to Lulu Retail, Dubai. Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman, lauding the state’s growing role in global supply chains, says, “This reflects Meghalaya’s capacity to deliver high-value organic produce internationally.” The shipment, part of the Megha-LAMP initiative, highlights emerging opportunities for cold-chain logistics and Northeast India’s integration into the global horticultural export network.
