How business works in Moradabad

An exporter takes samples to buyers, often at the IHGF Delhi Fair run by the Export Promotion Council for Handicrafts, and books orders months ahead of the Christmas and spring seasons. Production is spread across karkhanas: casting, sheet spinning, soldering, engraving, polishing, plating and lacquering, each paid by the piece or by weight. Karigars are paid weekly, often against advances.

Buyers pay by letter of credit, by advance or on open account, with charge-backs for defects. Social compliance and product safety audits by buyers are part of the work.

The Export Promotion Council for Handicrafts and the Moradabad Handicraft Exporters Association represent the trade.
