Exports are trading activities by selling goods or services from one country to another. Similar to
buying and selling activities in general, exports also involve producers as sellers from the country
of origin sending goods to consumers or buyers from the destination country. Export activities in
Indonesia play an important role, because international trade will improve the Indonesian
economy by generating income from the sale of goods or services abroad. Providing goods and
services that can be exported is a challenge, because not everyone is able to provide them in large
quantities. So far, large agencies and companies have carried out export activities. In reality,
there are many options for producing goods or services that have great potential if you carry out
export activities. One of them is MSME players. The aim of this research is to analyze how the
role of social capital between MSMEs and young exporters can potentially increase Indonesian
export activities and income. Using qualitative case study methods and Pierre Bourdieu's social
capital theory. The results of the research state that social capital can be a means to unite MSME
players with young exporters in order to increase and facilitate commodity export activities to
global markets. This is in line with one of the pillars of the vision of 'Welcoming a Golden
Indonesia 2045', namely the creation of sustainable economic development.
