The PDP builds on existing development aid measures and facilitates business partnerships as well as the exchange of experience and expertise between local and German companies. Thus, the PDP forms a vital basis for sustainable market development. Currently, the PDP is implemented in selected countries across South and Southeast Asia, Sub-Saharan Africa and the Middle East.

The PDP is implemented by the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) in close collaboration with the German Chambers of Commerce (AHKs).
