Project Purpose & Description

1. BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES

Bolivia is a beneficiary of multiple trade agreements , which allow native Bolivian products to be exported and known in those countries with which trade relations are maintained. Nevertheless, it is noteworthy that insufficient use of the agreements as well as the lack of commercial promotion derives in misuse of the commercial instruments with which it is counted.

It is important to consider that at present, the Asian countries are a global trading power. Bolivia looks for solutions that allow a better development of its foreign trade, being thus that the need for commercial training is a basic instrument which will allow us to obtain the necessary tools, as well as experiences that contribute to a better development of the Bolivian trade.
