KUALA LUMPUR, 18 NOVEMBER 2025 – The Malaysia External Trade Development Corporation (MATRADE) will lead an Export Acceleration Mission (EAM) to Cambodia from 25 to 27 November 2025, aimed at strengthening Malaysia’s trade engagement with one of ASEAN’s fastest-growing economies. The mission seeks to position Malaysian companies as reliable partners in meeting Cambodia’s rising demand for consumer and industrial goods.
The programme will include networking sessions with key business associations including the Malaysian Business Chamber in Cambodia (MBCC), Cambodia Chamber of Commerce, Federation of Associations for SMEs in Cambodia (FASMEC), and the Young Entrepreneurs Association of Cambodia (YEAC).
Participants will also join pre-arranged business meetings with potential importers and distributors, as well as market briefings on trade regulations and emerging opportunities in high-growth sectors.
The mission will involve Malaysian exporters in high-potential product sectors, including Fast-Moving Consumer Goods (FMCG), food and beverages, personal care products, detergents, agricultural products such as fertilisers, and petroleum-based products. These sectors have been identified as key drivers of Malaysia’s export potential and align closely with Cambodia’s growing demand for quality consumer and industrial goods.
The mission takes place at a strategic time as Cambodia’s economy continues to grow, fuelling consumer demand for higher-quality products.
Malaysia–Cambodia trade recorded strong growth, reaching USD848.8 million for January–September 2025, a 35.3% increase over the same period last year. This upward trend has been driven by Cambodia’s increasing demand for processed food and beverages, personal care products, and industrial supplies from Malaysia.
