Its quality control teams have visited manufacturing facilities in the region on multiple occasions to assess production capabilities, product quality, and compliance with international safety standards, state government sources said.

The company has indicated its readiness to place an initial order of approximately 50 export containers of fireworks manufactured to international specifications, with the potential to significantly expand procurement over the coming years.
