Why can't American companies export their products for females to India? Doesn't India allow American products into their country? Seems like this would be a large market.

They do. The rural Indians cannot afford the price. The U.S. companies cannot afford to sell at the rural Indian price.

Because they are too expensive for these women to buy. That’s what got the guy going in the first place, was the cost.

Cost was a big factor. The Indian women can barely afford to feed their families. Buying sanitary napkins, especially those with the added cost of being transported, would mean trading food budget monies for sanitary napkins.
