    There're many sites. For example, go to http://www.indiamart.com/ . You'll get an idea of what are the products available.

    Select a few commodities that you can handle. That'll be based on your financial, marketing, and other strengths. When you've narrowed your focus, go for evaluating the best one or two ideas.

    Then ask the question again to know how to get source them. You may get some help.

    OK, if you think this is a good and profitable business, I would hope that you would already have some products in mind.

    It depends on so many things... your contacts in India, and where you intend to export them to -- US, elsewhere?

    What do you know of, from India, that is in demand in whatever market you intend to send it to.

    Once you figure that out, if you believe you can get the product and know how to get it from point A to point B, then know of a way to sell it at the other end, you have the makings of a business idea.

    Taking it to business plan and, eventually, a business is the real challenge. Good luck!

    Look for something unique, the secret in importing is products. Clothing? Nah, too many people, jewelry, accessories, maybe, as for food products, check with you FDA for regulations and quarantine requirements. India is also a budding electronics and software sector, so I would recommend looking in that area.

    My friend is always looking for a place to buy Indian virgin curly hair from India. Everywhere she finds on the web are always sold out and it is hard to find. This might be something worth looking into. God bless you on your journey and good luck.
