Summary
Pakistan’s rice exports collapsed by over 50% in 2025–26 — driven by Afghanistan
border closures, catastrophic flooding, and severe PKR currency depreciation. Meanwhile, India
became the world’s largest rice exporter, holding 40% of global market share with its western
ports completely insulated from regional disruption.
This is an unsolicited consulting brief and live data tool built for KRBL Ltd. (India Gate) —
India’s largest basmati exporter — analyzing how this geopolitical disruption creates a rare,
time-sensitive export opportunity.
What I Built
I developed the Supply Chain Confidence Score (SCCS) —
a weighted, normalized risk intelligence model that quantifies supplier reliability across three
factors: border stability, port efficiency, and macroeconomic volatility. Using min-max
normalization on real data from APEDA, UN Comtrade, ACLED, and MarineTraffic, India’s western
corridor scores 78/100 against Pakistan’s 41/100 — a gap that holds across every weight
combination tested.
The analysis is delivered through an interactive dashboard featuring live weight adjustment, a full
audit trail, sensitivity analysis across four scenarios, and a Revenue Premium Simulator that
quantifies the financial upside for KRBL if they capture even a fraction of Pakistan’s
diverted volume.
The Pitch
Most data projects prove something already obvious. This one was built to answer a specific business
question for a specific company during a live geopolitical event — before anyone asked for
it.
The goal was simple: if KRBL’s export team opened this dashboard, would it change how they
think about their next quarter? I believe it would.
