Pak salt manufacturers urge exporters to improve packaging amid shipment rejections

KARACHI: (Apr 17) A Pakistani salt industry body on Friday said it has urged exporters and customs authorities to take corrective measures after several consignments were rejected by international buyers due to poor packaging.

Pakistan Salt Manufacturers Association Chairperson Saima Akhtar said during its meeting with the Collector of Customs Export, PSMA emphasised the need to strictly comply with packaging standards to prevent the erosion of Pakistan's salt exports.

"In the last few months, some consignments have been returned by international buyers because of poor and damaged packaging,” she said.
