XportHub, a new platform aimed at supporting the global ambitions of Indian D2C brands, has officially launched in Dubai. The initiative is co-founded by Shruti Agarwal, Founder of XportCircle, and Jitin Masand, Founder of OKIE Global. With a focus on the UAE and Saudi Arabia, the platform is designed to help Indian consumer brands gain structured access to key Gulf markets.
Rooted in Dubai, XportHub offers a permanent, curated space for Indian brands in sectors such as food & beverage, fashion, wellness, home, and lifestyle to connect directly with buyers, retailers, and distributors in the region.
“We believe India’s new-age D2C brands deserve the world. They are innovative, purposeful, and globally competitive. What they lack is access, not ambition,” says Shruti Agarwal.
“XportHub bridges that gap with knowledge, infrastructure, and real opportunity,” adds Jitin Masand.
The platform aims to prepare brands for export from the ground up by helping them with international compliance, pricing, packaging, and consumer insights. In addition to product showcasing, XportHub will support brands in embedding themselves into global retail and digital ecosystems.
“We are witnessing a global shift, consumers are curious about India like never before,” Shruti believes. “XportHub ensures that what the world sees from India is authentic, premium, and ready for scale.”
Jitin adds, “This is about more than access, it’s about building a pipeline of globally admired Indian brands, backed by experience, mentorship, and trust.”
By creating a structured entry point into the Gulf’s retail landscape, XportHub aims to de-risk the export journey for Indian founders and contribute to building a strong international presence for ‘Brand India’.
