Export Promotion Is Their Core Business Focus
Orissa International has 20+ years of experience in export promotion dating back to 1997, which has allowed them to build a solid base of knowledge and industry experience across a wide variety of sectors. No other firm in Southeast Asia has such a long track record in export promotion, or the depth of experience in the sectors and in the region that they have.

Presence in Southeast Asia
Orissa International has offices in key cities across all the emerging Southeast Asian markets, namely Singapore (head office), Kuala Lumpur, Jakarta, Bangkok, Ho Chi Minh City and Manila.

The Team
Orissa has a team of 20 full-time employees located across their six offices in Southeast Asia, who have been well-trained to handle the work orders that they receive from clients looking for export assistance. The team:

• Is made up of full time employees of Orissa International who directly undertake projects; they do not hire external consultants or outsource work as this allows them to manage projects directly and execute work more effectively to meet the most stringent requirements
• Includes both trade consultants and research consultants, as the company is increasingly receiving export related export research requests from clients to help them better understand the opportunities and challenges in their particular sector before they begin the process of executing their export strategy for the region
• Includes professionals with extensive industry experience, as well as individuals who have previously worked for leading government export agencies, including the U.S. Department of Commerce, Austrade and the Austrian Trade Commission.
