Indonesia is accelerating its efforts to expand international market access by partnering with a leading Japanese financial institution, aiming to promote the export of sustainable and high-value-added products.
During a recent meeting in Tokyo, the Director General of National Export Development from Indonesia’s Ministry of Trade emphasized the strong potential for increasing exports of renewable energy commodities such as palm kernel shells and wood pellets, which are experiencing growing demand in Japan.
The discussion also highlighted trade opportunities in agriculture and fisheries, particularly in tuna and other marine products, as part of Indonesia’s broader export development strategy.
The Japanese institution is expected to play a key role in supporting Indonesian exporters—especially micro, small, and medium-sized enterprises (MSMEs)—by enhancing logistics, improving distribution channels, and offering access to a vast business network in Japan. Additionally, the collaboration will provide training and financing opportunities to empower local producers and strengthen their competitiveness abroad.
This initiative is aligned with Indonesia’s objective to diversify its export markets and reduce reliance on traditional destinations. It reflects a shared commitment to advancing trade cooperation in sectors that prioritize sustainability and innovation.
The partnership is seen as a significant step toward deeper economic integration and may serve as a model for future cross-border collaboration across the Asia-Pacific region.
