ITE Business Session at Trade Expo Indonesia 2026 Unlocking the Way for Indonesian Exporters to the Russian and Eurasian Markets

Nabil Ramadhana, ITE Group Country Representative in Indonesia, said that Indonesia’s exports to Russia reached around USD 1.88 billion in 2025, a growth of 42.7% from the previous year. Around 69%, or USD 1.31 billion, came from the food and beverage sector. This leaves ample room to expand the market with other products, such as coffee, tea, cocoa, coconut, seafood, and processed foods, which remain wide open. In addition, other sectors, including building materials and tourism, also recorded significant increases, which means there are still opportunities to export to the EAEU region, particularly Russia.

Companies can maximize these opportunities through the cooperation program between ITE Group and Debindo, which offers Indonesian participation in ITE Group’s events: MosBuild (30 March – 2 April 2027), MITT (13 – 15 April 2027), and WorldFood Moscow (14 – 17 September 2027), all held at Crocus Expo, Moscow, Russia. The program does not merely bring Indonesian companies to exhibit in Russia. It also provides market introduction webinars, an Indonesia pavilion, a hosted buyers program, and business meeting scheduling through the MosBuild Connect platform.

A concrete example was shared by Hengky Prasetiya, Account Manager at PT Tatalogam Lestari. The manufacturer of Bali Roof Metal Shingles took part in MosBuild 2026 and brought home 36 leads from visitors, 35 of which were interested in PT Tatalogam Lestari’s Bali Roof products, along with one meeting with a prospective customer at the event. PT Tatalogam Lestari also met the Ambassador of the Republic of Indonesia to the Russian Federation and representatives of United Company RUSAL (UC RUSAL). The company said that support from the Trade Attaché, the Indonesian Embassy in Moscow, Indonesian students in Russia, and the organizer was very helpful, but that challenges remained, including the local language barrier, internet access, and cash payments.

The session affirmed that Debindo, as the official country representative of ITE Group in Indonesia, will provide all the information needed by companies participating in Trade Expo Indonesia (TEI) 2026 that are interested in becoming exhibitors at ITE’s exhibitions in Russia. Interested businesses can contact Majid Satriansyah of Debindo via WhatsApp at +62 813-1475-4531 or by email at [email protected].
