India to Ghana: Zinc Export Trade Route

The India to Ghana Zinc corridor is one of India's established pharmaceutical export routes, with 270 shipments documented worth a combined $4.5M USD. The route is dominated by INDUS LIFE SCIENCES PRIVATE LIMITED, which alone accounts for roughly 61% of all export value, reflecting the consolidated nature of India's zinc manufacturing sector.

Across 41 active suppliers, the average shipment value stands at $16.5K USD — a figure that reflects both bulk commercial orders from large pharmaceutical companies and smaller specialty shipments. Sea freight dominates at 73% of all shipments, consistent with zinc's non-urgent bulk-order profile.

Shipment activity peaks during July–September, with an average transit time of 15 days port-to-port. The route has recorded an annual growth rate of 20.2%, placing it at rank #2 among India's top zinc export destinations globally.

On the import side, key buyers of Indian zinc in Ghana include CAREL LOGISTICS LIMITED, CAREL LOGISTICS LIMITED , TO THE ORDER and 44 others. CAREL LOGISTICS LIMITED is the single largest importer with 123 shipments valued at $3.0M USD.

India's zinc exports to Ghana are driven primarily by a handful of large-scale manufacturers. INDUS LIFE SCIENCES PRIVATE LIMITED with 115 shipments leads the pack, a pattern common in generic pharmaceutical corridors where manufacturing scale creates significant cost advantages. The presence of 41 active exporters signals a competitive but concentrated market — buyers in Ghana benefit from supplier diversity while the top tier handles the majority of volume.

The top 3 suppliers — INDUS LIFE SCIENCES PRIVATE LIMITED, INDUS LIFE SCIENCES PRIVATE LIMITED , INDUS LIFE SCIENCES PVT LTD — together account for 76% of total trade value on this route. The average shipment value of $16.5K 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 zincofer liquid 200ml and zincovit tablets 2x15s, suggesting that buyers in Ghana tend to consolidate orders across related product lines from the same Indian supplier.

On the buying side, CAREL LOGISTICS LIMITED is the largest importer with 123 shipments worth $3.0M USD — representing 67% of all zinc imports from India on this route. A total of 47 buyers are active on this corridor.
