A special focus on
BioTrade
At AGBA, we focus on BioTrade-related products from the Mekong region. BioTrade products are those related to the:
Collection, production, transformation and commercialisation under social, environmental and economic sustainability.
“ProFound has been a key partner for the development of the BioTrade Initiative – both in terms of developing strategies and tools for effective programmes, as well as in implementing activities within these programmes.”
Our work on BioTrade in the Mekong region
To create biodiversity-related economic opportunities for entrepreneurs, ProFound contributes expertise to the Helvetas implemented and SECO-financed Regional BioTrade Project in Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia and Myanmar. The project intends to create business models for sustainably sourced, traceable, and value-added natural ingredients.
Helvetas and ProFound identified current bottlenecks among value chain actors operating in the BioTrade sector. Many of these issues originate in a lack of ability to translate market opportunities into business and export planning. These include inefficient value chain management; low levels of food safety and compliance and understanding of CSR; difficult access to finance and R&D support; lacking of knowledge of international markets and market access requirements and weak marketing capacities of small and medium enterprises.

Our clients feedback
“Participating in the BioFach Asia Pavilion was our first time in an international trade fair. This event was not only an important platform to advertise our products, but it also provided us with the opportunity to connect with potential buyers. The event was also a good opportunity for us to get real opinions on the uniqueness of our products.”
