Expo Solutions Group LLC and the Alliance of Business Structures and Entrepreneurs of Southeast Asian Countries, the Russian-Asian Union of Industrialists and Entrepreneurs, have signed a strategic cooperation agreement. The agreement establishes the principles of systematic collaboration aimed at strengthening business ties between Russian companies and the markets of the Global South, Southeast Asia, India, Sri Lanka, and China.

The key practical objective of the agreement is to expand opportunities for promoting Russian products in Southeast Asian markets through closer integration with regional business organizations and professional communities.

This is particularly important for the fishery industry, where export supplies play a critical role in fully realizing its production and economic potential while ensuring stable development. At the same time, Southeast Asian countries currently represent one of the fastest-growing regions in terms of demand, processing capacity, and distribution of fish and seafood products.

“For us, it is important to expand opportunities for promoting our clients’ products and services in global markets, including Southeast Asia — a highly promising destination for Russian fish and seafood exports. The new partnership will help systematize this work with regional business associations and professional communities, both within exhibition events and throughout the year,” said Ivan Fetisov, CEO of Expo Solutions Group.

“Our primary objective is to introduce businesses in our countries to the opportunities and market of the Russian Federation. We have developed an effective and proven framework for achieving this successfully. At present, we believe that despite the significant potential, trade turnover in fish products remains insufficient. Together with Expo Solutions Group, we are confident of achieving a breakthrough in increasing trade volumes and investment growth in this sector,” commented Lubarto Sartoyo Sanvirya, President of B2BASEAN.
