Webinar
In this Myanmar webinar, the team are focusing specifically on this rapidly emerging retail marketing, covering the following topics:
- Myanmar’s Food and Drinks sector – a brief introduction to the market
- Key things to learn more about from the experience of CMHL, a leading Food and Drinks retailer in Myanmar
- Opportunities and challenges of entering this market
UKABC along with the British Chamber of Commerce Myanmar are excited to host this second sector specific webinar on the retail sector in Myanmar which recently opened up for investment from UK companies. UK investment in Myanmar is the 5th largest in the world, valued at US$4.34 billion.
Myanmar is often referred to as the last “frontier” market in ASEAN. Spending a number of decades under military rule, the country has opened up and is expected to experience an upwards trajectory of economic growth in the years soon to come, so this is a brilliant time to gain a foothold in this emerging economy.
The Myanmar government recently announced a series of reforms to stimulate foreign investments. Now is the time for UK companies to engage in the possibilities and vast opportunities for exporting retail goods, not to mention the British Chamber of Commerce wholeheartedly supports market entry for UK companies looking to enter this market. Please contact anna@britishchambermyanmar.com for further details on how you can begin your exporting journey.
This webinar is perfectly suitable for the following types of companies and audiences:
- Companies in the food and drinks sector
- Fast-moving consumer goods
- Accredited retail associations
