MATRADE CUSTOMISE PROGRAM

For companies new to exporting, MATRADE has three intensive programmes to hasten export readiness of SMEs. The Women Exporters Development Programme (WEDP), Youth Exporters Development Programme (YEDP) and Bumiputera Exporter's Development Programme (BEDP), are all targeted export support facilities, each specifically tailored to boost export learning and performance of three specialised population groups, consisting of women, youths and Bumiputera. Statistics have shown that these groups have historically exhibited low levels of export participation in Malaysia.

The Mid-Tier Companies Development Programme (MTCDP) was developed and implemented in 2014. A 9-months, customised programme for export-oriented Mid-Tier Companies (MTCs) in Malaysia, either in manufacturing or services. The ultimate objective of MTCDP is to create a cluster of Malaysian Mid-Tier Companies that are globally competitive and successful as global & regional champions
