Export promotion opportunity

During the Hong Kong International Wine and Spirit Fair in November, Director General Rob Delane signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the Hong Kong Trade and Development Council (HKTDC) to link WA export-ready agricultural and food businesses with new market opportunities.

The MOU aims to promote economic growth and business development, and enhance trade promotion. To celebrate the MOU, a special free 12-month listing online promotion package is available for 100 Western Australian export companies. These food and beverage export companies will be listed in the "Western Australia Featured Suppliers Zone" on www.hktdc.com to enhance exposure of their businesses.

The Western Australian export companies should not be existing advertisers on www.hktdc.com and can only enjoy this online promotion package once during the validity period of the MOU.

Please note that this is a Business to Business (B2B) platform so it won’t generate the amount of enquiries as some of the Business to Customer (B2C) e-commerce sites, but will provide another way to promote your Western Australian wines to trade buyers around the world.  

If you would like to take advantage of this opportunity to be listed on the WA Featured Suppliers Zone on the HKTDC website please contact Carolyn Hine.
