Export Plant extracts & guar gum from Pakistan to Malaysia
Malaysia imported US$74.0M of plant extracts & guar gum (HS 1302) in 2025. India supplied US$8.1M of that in 2025, while Pakistan supplied US$590K, a gap of US$7.5M. Pakistan's share of the market is 0.8%.
That gap matters: buyers in Malaysia already source this product from South Asia and accept the shipping times, payment terms and documents involved. Pakistan's total sales to Malaysia grew 50% between 2020 and 2025, which suggests buyers there are increasingly open to Pakistani suppliers.
