Indiaβs retail landscape is evolving at a rapid pace β and one of the most notable trends is the rising demand for imported FMCG products. From premium beverages and chocolates to exotic snacks and personal care items, more Indian retailers are choosing imported goods over domestic brands.
Why? Because imported FMCG offers higher margins, stronger consumer appeal, and a clear competitive edge.
At Neo Delight Foods, we work with retailers across India to supply high-margin imported products that elevate shelf value, attract discerning consumers, and grow bottom-line profits.

π° 1. Better Margins = Better Profits

Imported FMCG products typically offer 25%β40% margin compared to the 10%β15% of standard local products. These goods are perceived as premium or exclusive, enabling retailers to sell them at higher markups without resistance from the customer.
Example:
- Local juice packet: βΉ20 (margin βΉ3)
- Imported juice (Rani, Barbican): βΉ70ββΉ90 (margin βΉ20ββΉ30)
π 2. Growing Appetite for Global Flavours
Indian consumers, especially Gen Z and millennials, are more exposed to global tastes than ever before. They actively seek out:
- Imported chocolates (Lindt, Ferrero Rocher)
- Gourmet snacks (Layβs STAX, Takis, Doritos)
- International drinks (Rani, Perrier, Monster)
Retailers that meet this demand build stronger customer loyalty and attract new shoppers.
ποΈ 3. Visual Appeal & Premium Packaging
Imported FMCG products often come with visually attractive packaging that stands out on shelves. This naturally drives impulse purchases and increases the basket value for each customer.
Shiny foil packs, resealable containers, and well-branded tins = more visual trust and less price sensitivity.
π§Ί 4. Bundling & Gifting Opportunities
Retailers are creating combo packs and festive hampers using imported items, especially during Diwali, Raksha Bandhan, Christmas, and Valentineβs Day.
Products like premium coffee, hot chocolate, biscuits, juices, and chocolates form the backbone of profitable gifting bundles.
