Industry experts estimate the deal could unlock additional export opportunities worth ₹6,000-7,000 crore and double India's export market share in the UK to 12% over the next two years.

The leather industry expects to gain at least 5% additional market share in the UK in 1-2 years, outpacing competitors like Vietnam, Indonesia, Cambodia, Turkey, and Bangladesh, especially in value-conscious retail and brand segments.
