Through the Indonesian Pavilion, the Indonesian Embassy in Phnom Penh promoted Indonesian export products, ranging from food and beverages to herbal medicines and batik. With a total area of 108 square meters consisting of 10 booths, the Indonesian Embassy in Phnom Penh became the foreign representative with the highest number of booths.
Ambassador Santo Darmosumarto of the Republic of Indonesia in Phnom Penh expressed hope that the concrete participation of the embassy could encourage an increase in Indonesian product exports in Cambodia.
Ten Indonesian companies and distributors in Cambodia participated in the exhibition, including PT. Dami Sariwana (herbal medicine manufacturer), K-1000 (distributor of Indomie and Teh Botol Sosro), Kino Cambodia, Chhivtimex Group (distributor of PT. Eagle Indo Pharma), V-Consolidated Co.

The participation of the Indonesian Embassy in Phnom Penh in the 16th CIE is an ongoing effort to promote and increase Indonesian product sales in Cambodia. In addition to products from PT. Dami Sariwana, all the products displayed in the exhibition have entered Cambodia and are available for purchase in markets, minimarkets, and supermarkets.
Cambodia is a potential market for Indonesian products, with a trend of increasing bilateral trade values. Currently, Indonesia is the 6th largest trading partner of Cambodia after China, the United States, Vietnam, Thailand, and Japan.
According to the data from the General Directorate of Customs and Excise of Cambodia for the period of January to November 2023, the bilateral trade value reached US$ 965.1 million.
