Suwon City in Gyeonggi Province is launching the "Singapore and Indonesia Export Pioneering Group" to replace the Middle East region.


On May 8, Suwon City announced that it will dispatch an export pioneering group to these two regions and is recruiting 10 small and medium-sized manufacturing companies to participate by June 5.


The export pioneering group is a project in which Suwon City collaborates with local professional trade organizations. Participating companies from Suwon will visit business sites of buyers (purchasers) certified by local cities and conduct export consultations.


Suwon City had originally planned to operate the "Suwon City Middle East Export Pioneering Group" in April, but the project was suspended due to the unstable local situation. As an alternative, the Singapore and Indonesia Export Pioneering Group will now be held from October 19 to 24.

The Singapore and Indonesia Export Pioneering Group will conduct export consultations with local buyers in Singapore and Jakarta, Indonesia, visit buyers' business sites, and pioneer new export markets.


Singapore and Indonesia are key hubs for trade with 2 billion Muslims. Among ASEAN countries, Singapore ranks first in imports and Indonesia ranks third.


Suwon City will support buyer research and outreach by region, interpretation for export consultations, and a portion of airfare (for one person per company). Participating companies are responsible for part of the airfare and local accommodation expenses. Suwon City will also provide information on 100 local buyers in advance to support customized export activities.



Companies wishing to participate can visit the "City News" bulletin board on the Suwon City website (www.suwon.go.kr), search for "2026 Small and Medium-sized Enterprise Export Pioneering Group," download the application form, complete it, and submit it along with their English catalog and other required documents by email (jiwoo68@korea.kr) by June 5.
