The working idea
His work sits at the intersection of global trade, supplier networks, B2B marketing and execution: identifying the right market, the right product and the right customer — then delivering with the quality, documentation and consistency international buyers expect.
That combination is uncommon. Many export businesses are strong on product and weak on market. Others can sell, but struggle to execute. Saurabh's career has been built on both sides of that equation — commercial development and operational delivery — which is the foundation of Altus Exports.
In his words
I didn't start Altus Exports because India needed another trading company.
I started it because, after working on international exports and building a business of my own, I saw the same problem repeatedly: India has exceptional manufacturing capability, but international buyers often struggle to find the right suppliers, and Indian manufacturers struggle to build reliable international sales channels.
Altus Exports was created to solve that gap.
Two audiences. One partner.
Altus Exports is built for both sides of the same gap. Choose the path that matches your business.
International Buyers
I help international companies identify products, evaluate suppliers, negotiate commercially, coordinate quality, manage documentation and deliver shipments.
Source from India with one accountable partner
Indian Manufacturers
I help Indian manufacturers identify markets, find buyers, build export sales channels and convert international opportunities into repeat business.

How he works
His approach to global trade is organised around five operating principles.
01
The right product in the wrong market is still the wrong opportunity. Demand, competition, pricing, regulation and buyer requirements come before the export plan — not after the first quotation.
02
International buyers need partners who can hold quality, pricing and delivery over time. Supplier selection and qualification are not a sourcing formality; they are the foundation of repeat business.
03
A buyer should not have to manage a dozen factories to build an India programme. A capable export partner consolidates communication, quality, documentation and logistics into one accountable relationship.
04
International trade is relationship-driven. The first order is a proof point, not the finish line. The real work is converting a trial shipment into a programme that both sides can plan around.
05
India offers manufacturing depth, craftsmanship, materials and cost competitiveness. The opportunity is to combine those strengths with the quality systems, communication and documentation international buyers already expect.
What I Bring
Not a list of skills. The capabilities that decide whether an India sourcing relationship actually works.
01
Understanding what buyers in different markets actually need before recommending a product.
02
Access to manufacturers across multiple Indian product categories and manufacturing clusters.
03
Experience with pricing, negotiation, buyer acquisition and international sales.
04
Unlike a traditional trading company, I understand both product and demand generation.
05
Sourcing is only the beginning. Quality, documentation, production and logistics determine whether the relationship survives.
India has the manufacturing capability. The opportunity is to connect that capability with the right customers in the right markets.
