The Myanmar Trade Promotion Organization (MyanTrade) met with Mr Konstantin Kanarev, Trade Representative of Russia to Myanmar, on 11 August 2025 to discuss establishing a trading house to strengthen bilateral trade. Talks covered export potential for Myanmar’s agricultural produce, possible imports from Russia, market conditions, trade procedures, and measures to accelerate cooperation. Earlier, MyanTrade held virtual and hybrid meetings on 28 July to promote exports of mango pulp, dried mango, and high-grade coffee to Russia. With Russia importing most mango pulp from India, Myanmar aims to capture part of the 10,000-tonne demand. Officials also discussed boosting coffee exports, focusing on cultivation, production, and varieties suited to the Russian market.
