PT Terminal Teluk Lamong (TTL), a subsidiary of state-owned port operator Pelindo, was named “The Most Committed BUMN Pembina UMKM All Sector” at the inaugural 2025 UMKM BUMN Awards on Tuesday, in recognition of its efforts to support Indonesia’s micro, small, and medium enterprises (UMKM).
Held at the Borobudur Hotel in central Jakarta, the awards ceremony was attended by national figures including Deputy Speaker of the People’s Consultative Assembly (MPR RI), Eddy Soeparno, who underlined the strategic importance of MSMEs to the country’s long-term economic resilience.
“Supporting MSME development is not just a policy, it is a constitutional mandate,” Soeparno said in his keynote address. “Our national strategy must include sustainable economic growth, environmental responsibility, and independence in energy, food, and water sectors.”
TTL walked away with four awards, with the top honor spotlighting its comprehensive coaching program for small businesses across sectors. The company has embedded UMKM empowerment into its core social and environmental responsibility (TJSL) agenda, aiming to uplift communities around its operational areas.
“We are truly honored by this recognition,” said TTL Director of Finance, HR, and Risk Management, Budi Satriyo, who accepted the award on behalf of the company. “It affirms our long-standing commitment to building sustainable, strategic partnerships with the MSME sector.”
Unlike conventional award evaluations, the 2025 UMKM BUMN Awards adopted a ground-up approach, assessing companies based on feedback directly from the MSMEs they mentor. This method, organizers say, provides a more transparent and grassroots view of impact.
TTL’s MSME coaching initiative includes infrastructure and sales technology support to improve operational efficiency, as well as capacity building through training and mentoring. The company also assists with licensing and product certification to ensure regulatory compliance and safety standards, while enhancing market access and financial literacy for partner businesses.
