India to Turkey: Metronidazole Export Trade Route

The India to Turkey Metronidazole corridor is one of India's established pharmaceutical export routes, with 197 shipments documented worth a combined $4.6M USD. The route is dominated by M T MADON EXPORTS, which alone accounts for roughly 34% of all export value, reflecting the consolidated nature of India's metronidazole manufacturing sector.

Across 48 active suppliers, the average shipment value stands at $23.1K USD — a figure that reflects both bulk commercial orders from large pharmaceutical companies and smaller specialty shipments. Sea freight dominates at 81% of all shipments, consistent with metronidazole's non-urgent bulk-order profile.

Shipment activity peaks during October–December, with an average transit time of 28 days port-to-port. The route has recorded an annual growth rate of 32.0%, placing it at rank #9 among India's top metronidazole export destinations globally.

On the import side, key buyers of Indian metronidazole in Turkey include AK NAK TUR AKAR TAAH ITH IHR, ETT GIDA TEM.INS.ELEK.TEKS.ITH.IHR., HAWKARY PHARMACEUTICAL COMPANY and 71 others. AK NAK TUR AKAR TAAH ITH IHR is the single largest importer with 2 shipments valued at $1.5M USD.

India's metronidazole exports to Turkey are driven primarily by a handful of large-scale manufacturers. M T MADON EXPORTS with 14 shipments leads the pack, a pattern common in generic pharmaceutical corridors where manufacturing scale creates significant cost advantages. The presence of 48 active exporters signals a competitive but concentrated market — buyers in Turkey benefit from supplier diversity while the top tier handles the majority of volume.

The top 3 suppliers — M T MADON EXPORTS, MEDCELL PHARMA, MICRO LABS LIMITED — together account for 73% of total trade value on this route. The average shipment value of $23.1K USD reflects a mix of bulk commercial orders and smaller specialty shipments.

Beyond the primary product category, shipments on this route include closely related formulations such as metrocell (metronidazole infusion bp 500 and flazole injection (metronidazole injecti , suggesting that buyers in Turkey tend to consolidate orders across related product lines from the same Indian supplier.

On the buying side, AK NAK TUR AKAR TAAH ITH IHR is the largest importer with 2 shipments worth $1.5M USD — representing 33% of all metronidazole imports from India on this route. A total of 74 buyers are active on this corridor.
