According to him, the main obstacle to entering markets outside the CIS is the high level of certification requirements. The center intends to reimburse exporters 30% to 50% of the costs for implementing ISO and JAS standards.
Jumaliev noted that to diversify exports and reduce dependence on traditional markets such as Russia, Kazakhstan, and Uzbekistan, the government is launching a program to attract foreign consultants.
“We are inviting specialists from Europe and other countries, covering the cost of their services and organizing training sessions. After the successful implementation of international standards, companies will be compensated for part of their incurred costs. For the textile industry, having an ISO 9001 certificate is a mandatory condition for entering into direct contracts with European clients,” he specified.
The Deputy Director emphasized that starting from 2026, the focus of support will shift from regional platforms to global platforms.
- New markets: Active work is underway to train entrepreneurs in trading on Amazon, as well as on marketplaces in Turkey and China.
- Training: The center organizes weekly and two-week training sessions with the participation of experts covering topics such as logistics, labeling, and tax registration for online trading.
“90% of global trade turnover is moving online. Our task is to train manufacturers, especially in the light industry, in effective trading methods on marketplaces, including the processing of CT-1 certificates, accounting, and personnel policy in the context of digital trade,” added Jumaliev.
