PSW, Alibaba.com partner to boost trust in global e-commerce, support Pakistani exporters

Pakistan Single Window (PSW) and Alibaba.com have agreed to link Pakistan’s digital trade system with the international B2B platform through a Trade Data Confirmation Service, Business Recorder reported on Friday. The arrangement is intended to help Pakistani firms build credibility with overseas buyers and participate more readily in online cross-border trade. It will give Alibaba.com and its users an added verification mechanism for suppliers’ export declarations.

The confirmation process will use API-based exchanges, while the underlying trade records will not be transferred between the partners. PSW chief executive Syed Aftab Haider said the collaboration could support transparency and reliability in supply chains, while Alibaba.com’s Pakistan business head Summer Gao said it would make transactions smoother for local exporters. The platform already connects Pakistani businesses with international buyers and provides tools to find markets and widen export reach.
