The Trade Development Authority of
Pakistan (TDAP) is the successor organization to the Export Promotion Bureau (EPB). It is
the national trade promotion organization of Pakistan. Operating under the administrative
control of the Ministry of Commerce it is mandated to have a holistic view of global trade
development rather than only the 'export promotion' perspective of its predecessor.
About the Directory
The Pakistan Exporters’ Directory has
been developed by the Trade Development Authority of Pakistan based on data extracted from
Pakistan Custom’s records. Its main purpose is to assist foreign buyers in sourcing their
requirements from Pakistan. The Directory is also expected to promote export companies in
Pakistan by making available relevant details regarding their products, export performances,
and profiles to foreign buyers. This in turn would contribute to enhancing exports from
Pakistan.
Search Parameters:
The Directory provides an elaborate
search facility to its users based on following key parameters:
1. HS Code
2. Product Category
3. Company Name
Further details in respect of
individual companies can be seen by clicking the “Company Details” column.
Exporter’s Categorization:
To further assist the users in their
search in relation to activity level of prospective suppliers, companies in the Directory
have been placed into Large, Medium, and Small categories based on their annual export
performance. This has been reflected in the Directory using the following color scheme:
1
Large
Golden
2
Medium
Silver
3
Small
Bronze
Directory Updating:
Existing version of the Directory is
based on export data obtained from Pakistan Customs for the calendar year 2016. The
Directory will be continuously updated by TDAP on the basis of annual export data for future
years and inputs received from stakeholders. Companies can get their data updated or fill
any information gaps by completing the online form available at the link “Update Your Data”
within the Directory. Companies not reflected in the Directory and willing to become its
part can do so by using the “Add Your Company” link.
