Mongolia encounters hurdles when exporting its goods because of weak industrial capability, lack of competitiveness in promotion and packaging, according to MNCCI secretary general B Saruul, who said it is important to tackle these issues through mutually-beneficial clusters.
Started in 2017, the TRAM project aims to contribute to the Mongolian economic growth by supporting an increase in non-mining sector exports. The project will last till 2021 in cooperation with the ministry of foreign affairs and the MNCCI.
The project enables non-mining sector businesses to gain better access to foreign markets, reduce export costs and ensures that Mongolian exporters improve their profitability in targeted international markets. (DS)
