Trade
is a powerful engine that drives economic growth and reduces poverty.
Through trade, countries can take advantage of global market forces:
competition, human resource development, technology transfer, and
technological innovation
BTFP and partners are successfully playing the
role of key facilitators for trade of biodiversity products and
services through:
-
Market information: creation,
collection and dissemination of relevant market information on
selected value chains of biodiversity products and services.
-
Business development: making available
international experts on the selected value chains, who advise the
companies on improving their business models and complying with market
requirements. Generally, the companies are guided through quality
improvement processes, supply chain integration, product
positioning, cost-calculation and export planning.
-
Market access & consolidation:
through participation at
international trade fairs, as well as match making mechanisms, such as
B2B programmes and buyer-seller meetings.
-
Enabling legislation:
through participation at international debates on regulation and
other mechanisms having a direct impact on the trade of the selected
value chains.
