Abstract
The report focuses on the import operations at Muktinath Trade Concern, including how the company imports goods from foreign countries and adheres to regulatory compliance. This cooperative education report documents the various tasks carried out by an intern during their working experience. The objectives of the study include: (1) to gain a deeper understanding of trading, specifically the process of importing; (2) to apply the theoretical knowledge acquired in the classroom to practical implementation; (3) to gain a practical experience in the trading
business; (4) to build professional networks in the industry.
This study provides a detailed explanation of all the duties and responsibilities assigned during the internship at Muktinath Trade Concern during the period from 2nd January 2023 to 24th April 2023. The role that was given to me helped me develop better communication and interpersonal skills, and a heightened sense of responsibility by working diligently for the organization. This practical cooperative education program also provided me with insights into various functions such as using new software, data entry, maintaining records, methods of importing, inventory management, approaching different people, etc. The report consists of the contribution I made during the internship, the problems and issues I faced, and how the problems were solved. Any challenges encountered were resolved with input from team members at the company and also through self-initiation and communication. The report also consists of the recommendations provided to the company such as providing proper training to the sales staff, hiring a proper inventory manager, providing motivational training and program to the staff, and implementing strong marketing strategies. Furthermore, the report consists of my learning such as the importance of communication, taking self-initiative, why making mistakes is essential, procedures of import and tender, etc., and also includes the limitations of this study.
