Global trade looks simple from the outside.

• A product is bought.
• A product is shipped.
• A product is sold.

But behind that simple movement lies a complex world of trust, risk, freight, currency, insurance, relationships, ports, sanctions and geopolitics.

In this episode of We Make Heroes, Amit Anand shares his journey as a global commodity trader with deep experience in Dubai, steel, coal, iron ore and international business.

He explains how war changes the reality of trade from rising freight costs and fuel prices to insurance risks, shipping routes, currency pressure and uncertainty in decision-making.

This conversation also explores why Dubai became a global trading hub, how Indian entrepreneurs operate in international markets, why trust matters more than data in business, and how global disruptions eventually impact the common person through inflation, fuel prices and shortages.

This is not just a business conversation.

It is a conversation about how the world is connected and how events happening far away can affect prices, business and life in India.
