CYBERJAYA – Dagang NeXchange Bhd has launched new promotional packages to assist small and medium enterprises (SMEs) adopt digitalisation in their trade processes.
 
Effective January 1, the packages are aimed at helping SMEs stay competitive and sustainable amidst challenges posed by the Covid-19 pandemic.
 
From January to June 30, 2021, new customers can benefit from a registration fee waiver worth up to RM500 for all services provided by DNeX’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Dagang Net Technologies Sdn Bhd.

DNex group managing director Datuk Seri Syed Zainal Abidin Syed Mohamed Tahir said the Covid-19 pandemic has prompted SMEs to urgently review their strategies with digitalisation being a critical component to compete and save costs.

“The SME sector contributes a significant component to Malaysia’s gross domestic product and hence requires due support to ensure their business sustainability,” said Syed Zainal Abidin.

He added the promotional packages are part of efforts by the company to increase digitalisation among SMEs, which unfortunately have been adversely impacted by the Covid-19 pandemic.
 
“DNeX is well positioned as the digital trade facilitation partner for businesses including SMEs and government agencies towards improvements and efficiency in trade processes as well as ease of doing business in the country.

We hope that the promotional packages can bring about some relief in terms of cost savings and cost optimisation of affected businesses,” said Syed Zainal Abidin.

Existing customers namely customers of declaration and manifest services can benefit from a waiver of mailbox fee for three months, and worth RM270 per mailbox beginning January 2021.

Permit users on the other hand can opt for the eValue Plan which allows customers to waive the existing RM200 annual subscription fee.

Under the eValue Plan, customers are charged only a flat fee of RM8 comprising RM5 approved permit fee and RM3 administration fee for each transaction.

DNeX has also recently introduced new enhancements and features to its Trade Facilitation suite of eServices including reporting and analytics, and back-end integration for ALDEC, a powerful all-encompassing eService for preparation and submission of various electronic declarations of trade documentation to different authorities.

The company has also enhanced the risk analysis, and evaluation and data reusability features of its pre-alert manifest service for cargo clearance via air mode called ePAM.

Moreover, a new module – Dagangan Transit – has been introduced to its ePermit eService which allows online declaration for agricultural products.

These enhanced and new features can further help customers save time and cost, and  increase efficiency in their trade processes. – The Vibes, December 2, 2020
