Pavlodar entrepreneurs received certificates of international trade course

Aigerim Altybasarova, regional representative of the Center for Trade Policy Development "QazTrade" together with consultants of the International Trade Center within the framework of the project "Ready4 Trade Central Asia" held a two-day training seminar in Pavlodar.

At the training, entrepreneurs were told about the current rules of international trade, as well as what requirements are imposed on Kazakhstani products sent to EU countries for export.

The offline training includes 15 topics relevant to exporters in four areas: International Trade Rules, Export Procedures, EU Market Requirements, and Quality and Compliance Standards.

Timur Makhmudov, a representative of KazAgroStat LLP, a peasant farm, noted that he will apply the knowledge obtained at the seminar in practice. Now the enterprise grows potatoes in the Pavlodar region and sells products through intermediaries in Uzbekistan. The company plans to expand its export opportunities and independently search for new markets with the help of new tools and information provided by the trainers.

The need for new knowledge for exporters of finished products was also noted by another participant of the training, Yulia Klimova, head of the Foreign Trade Department of TROYA Company LLP. So far, the company exports only to Russia, but in the near future intends to enter the markets of Europe, UAE, Iran and Azerbaijan.

Recall that the educational project is implemented in Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan and Uzbekistan. Its main goal is to fill the information vacuum of novice exporters of non-resource products and services, to help properly build business processes and prepare to enter the international market.

It is planned to hold 12 field seminars for entrepreneurs in 10 cities of Kazakhstan. The next training will take place in Astana on February 16, 2023.
