Aircraft and Semi-Precious Stones

Aircraft and spacecraft parts have also recorded a significant exportation increase mainly due to the increasing need for such parts in Kuwait’s expanding aviation market. India is traditionally a major exporter of cereals to Kuwait. This has continued with a higher export of rice and other grains.

The exports have also increased due to the increased demand for precious and semi-precious stones such as diamonds and gemstones. These items have gained a market and have contributed to the exports of Kuwait in the global markets. Other products that have experienced increased export include vehicles (other than railway or tramway rolling stock) and pharmaceuticals.
