KITA, Alibaba to Aid Global Marketing of Korean SMEs

The Korea International Trade Association says it will launch a project with the world's largest online business-to-business marketplace, alibaba.com, to support the global marketing of small Korean companies. The two sides will provide a "global B2B export support premium package" to domestic companies, including all services necessary to prepare for overseas shipping and catalogue ordering. The service encompasses a global network comprised of over 36-hundred companies in 240 nations. The trade association will provide the service to two-thousand small Korean firms starting in April.
