The Californer/10233324

IRVINE, Calif. - Californer -- MATRADE is a Malaysian national trade promotion agency under the Ministry of International Trade and Industry (MITI) whose purpose is to develop and promote Malaysia's export to the rest of the world. Its main mission is to promote Malaysia's numerous enterprises while assisting and developing Malaysia's external trade with particular emphasis on the export of manufactured and semi-manufactured products. To do this, MATRADE has formulated and implemented a national export marketing strategy, in addition to undertaking commercial intelligence and market research. It has also created a comprehensive database of information for the improvement and development of trade.

Malaysia is already rated as one of the world's leading exporting nations, supplying products to over 200 countries worldwide. However, to raise the profile of Malaysian exporters and give them a competitive edge in foreign markets, particularly the USA (Malaysia's third-largest trading partner), MATRADE disseminates timely and relevant information and market intelligence. For example, bilateral trade in goods with the United States rose to $71.4 billion in 2021, with U.S. imports from Malaysia totaling $56.2 billion, a 27.3% ($12.1 billion) increase.**

The figures from 2022 are expected to be even greater, reflecting further steady growth in the amount of goods exported from Malaysia to the U.S. This trend represents significant possibilities for the thousands of SME operations based in Malaysia who want to establish a presence in the United States. However, in order to take full advantage of these openings, a SME must have the right tools and that is where MATRADE has stepped up and delivered what is sure to be a huge advantage.
