VOInews, Jakarta: In order to increase the capacity of local MSMEs in the export market, the Malang Customs Office pioneered the Export Clinic programme. The programme is an assistance for micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs) that have export potential in their working areas so that they can go international.

Malang Customs Extension and Information Services Section Head Dwi Prasetyo Rini revealed that the Export Clinic is a programme initiated by Customs to assist entrepreneurs who wish to carry out export activities. The Export Clinic is a consultation medium between service users and Customs employees for export activities. "In addition to providing socialisation on export procedures, we also coordinate with relevant ministries or institutions and regional agencies to support the empowerment of MSMEs," said Dwi, quoted from the beacukai.go.id page in Jakarta, Thursday (23/5/2024).

Dwi revealed that during the week, Malang Customs intensively assisted MSME players in the Greater Malang area. The assistance team visited the Sustainable Food Innovation MSME on Wednesday (15/5) and CV Kusuma Wijaya Plants on Friday (17/5). "In addition to conducting visits to MSME players, we also fulfilled the invitation of the Malang City Cooperative Industry and Trade Office to provide export socialisation for MSMEs," said Dwi.

The export socialisation was held at Hotel Montana, Malang, on Tuesday (21/05). In the socialisation entitled "Trade Mission for Leading Export Products", Malang Customs explained the potential and procedures for starting exports for MSMEs.
