In a major step towards transforming its industrial landscape, the Kerala government has launched three key policies-Export Promotion, ESG, and Logistics-along with a High-Tech Framework under its New Industrial Policy.

Industries Minister P. Rajeeve announced that these initiatives will boost investment, promote sustainable growth, and position Kerala as a leading investment hub for eco-friendly and responsible businesses.

The ESG Policy 2025 (Environment, Social, and Governance) focuses on encouraging industries that are environmentally conscious, socially inclusive, and ethically governed. Meanwhile, the Export Promotion Policy aims to attract export-oriented, high-value enterprises, and the Logistics Policy seeks to strengthen Kerala’s global trade connectivity through modern infrastructure and technology-driven operations.

Rajeeve emphasized that this framework aligns Kerala with global sustainability goals and will empower MSMEs, create new jobs, and enhance the state’s competitiveness in sectors like manufacturing, tech services, and exports.

With this, Kerala aims to shift from being just a service-based economy to a future-ready industrial hub known for innovation and green growth.
