Frequently Asked Questions

The Asian Export Awards was launched in 2018 to recognise the leading exporters in the Asia Pacific region.

Should your company be named as a winner, not only will you build your company’s prestige as a leading exporter. Business magazines in two of the region's busiest port cities Singapore Business Review and Hong Kong Business will also be able to help promote your company’s best products or services through their wide readership online and in print. The past winners of our other awards program can testify how the awards helped them widen their network and extend their reach as business professionals knew more about them and their award-winning products, services, projects, and initiatives.

Nomination is open to any Asian export companies. The awards will be presented in two divisions: Large Corporate and Local Champion. Companies with annual turnover of over $300 million make up the Large Corporate division. Meanwhile, corporates unable to meet the $300m turnover mark and SMEs can find their spot as a Local Champion in their industry category.

You may nominate exported products or export services that are being offered in your office in Asia. The products or services should also either have been launched over the last 24 calendar months or for products or services launched more than 24 calendar months ago, it should have undergone recent innovations for improvement.
