To support the entrepreneurs with such aspiration, EXIM Thailand has collaborated with Amazon Global Selling Thailand and Department of International Trade Promotion, Ministry of Commerce, in organizing a training program titled "Bring Thai Goods to Fly High on Cross-Border E-Commerce with Amazon" during May 23-July 18, 2023 at EXIM Thailand's Head Office and the Northern Science Park, Chiang Mai University. The program aims to develop capabilities of Thai SMEs so that they would be well prepared for driving their businesses confidently toward E-commerce by providing them with training, business matching, financial advice, introduction of risk management tools, and arrangement of CBEC workshops targeting the US, European and Asian countries. This would benefit entrepreneurs and enable them to access Amazon.com network of more than 300 million customers worldwide. Some of the training topics are opening of accounts with Amazon, registration of US trademark and certificate of the US Food and Drug Administration, fulfilment by Amazon and store opening on Amazon.com. The program participation is free of charge. For further information, please contact EXIM Contact Center, Tel. 0 2169 9999 and Amazon Global Selling Thailand, Tel. 08 9505 0766.
"E-commerce is not a choice, but a salvation for businesses in the Next Normal era. EXIM Thailand has thus launched a CBEC with Amazon training program for Thai entrepreneurs by enhancing their literacy of market analysis, CBEC approaches, preparation of products, registration of trademarks in the US, arrangement of stores on Amazon.com, E-commerce tools, and product promotion planning. To thoroughly allow for provincial entrepreneurs' access to the program, the training program will be organized at EXIM Thailand's Head Office in conjunction with the Northern Science Park, Chiang Mai University to boost export and E-commerce literacy of SMEs of all sectors, with EXIM Thailand and Amazon closely supporting as their mentors. This aims to strengthen Thai businesses' confidence in competing globally amid numerous challenges and opportunities in the global markets," added Dr. Rak.
