The Global Quality and Standards Programme (GQSP) is a large-scale programme to encourage systematic trade development along specific value chains by strengthening quality infrastructure institutions and service providers, enhancing the compliance capacity of private sector actors, particularly small-medium enterprises (SMEs), and creating a culture of quality among all stakeholders. GQSP works in 11 countries, including Indonesia, supporting 14 value chains on five continents worldwide. GQSP Indonesia in cooperation with the Ministry of Marine Affairs and Fishery (MMAF) and the National Standardization Agency (BSN) supports a series of selected aquaculture value chains, which are shrimps, seaweed, pangasius, Clarias catfish, and milkfish. The programme was launched in July 2019 and is an extension of the previous programme – SMART-Fish Indonesia (2014-2019). GQSP Indonesia now has partners in the private sector in 21 districts and 9 provinces across Indonesia. GQSP is funded by the Swiss Confederation, through the Swiss State Secretariat for Economic Affairs (SECO) and implemented by the United Nations Industrial Development Organization.
