(VOV) -A four-year programme to raise the export competitiveness of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) through local trade promotion was introduced by the Ministry of Industry and Trade (MoIT) in central city of Danang on July 9.
The programme follows a US$3.89 million Swiss State Secretariat for Economic Affairs (SECO) project to support trade promotion and export development in Vietnam. It focuses on enhancing Vietnam Trade Promotion Agency (VTPA) and trade association capacity.
The SECO will provide US$3.32 million, with the remainder sourced from the VTPA and select local organisations.
In addition, the programme will assist with the establishment of the National Export Council to improve monitoring standards and review the implementation of the national import-export strategy.
The programme will be carried out in cities and provinces nationwide selected on the basis of their trade support capacity and sustainable export development potential.
