Trade promotion through the Embassy

The Swiss Embassy participates since 2003 in local Trade Fairs whenever there is enough interest from Swiss companies to be represented by the Embassy. The aim is to enhance the presence of Switzerland at the various Fairs and to help interested companies to come into the Malaysian Market at a very low cost. The Trade Officer of the Embassy introduces the participating companies to the prospective customer and hands out documentation and product catalogues. At the end of the Fair each participating company receives a report and a list of the potential business partners for further networking. In order to finance the booth a small contribution is asked from each participating company.
