Export Maize (corn) from Pakistan to Malaysia

Pakistan is already ahead of India in Malaysia for maize (corn) (HS 1005). In 2025 Pakistani exporters sold US$6.1M here against India's US$3.1M, out of total imports of US$1.07B in 2025, giving Pakistan 0.6% of the market.

Pakistan's total sales to Malaysia grew 50% between 2020 and 2025, which suggests buyers there are increasingly open to Pakistani suppliers. On our opportunity score, Malaysia rates 59 out of 100 (strong) and ranks 12th of 37 markets for this product.

For a Pakistani exporter this is a market to defend and deepen rather than open: buyers know Pakistani supply, so the competition is often other Pakistani firms. Next step: show certifications, lead times and capacity clearly on your listing so importers in Malaysia can compare you quickly.
