Unlocking Indonesia’s Stone Potential for the Global Market

Indonesia is blessed with abundant natural resources, especially stones and minerals. Yet, this vast potential remains underutilized. According to UN Comtrade 2023, Indonesia’s export value of stone products (HS 7103) is still only a fraction of the global potential, which reaches USD 1.2 billion.

At the local level, the reality is even more challenging. Around 70% of small-scale artisans in Garut lack access to global markets and sufficient capital (source: Disperindag Jabar 2024). Other barriers include logistics, certification, international standards, and the difficulty of fulfilling bulk orders.

Meanwhile, in rural areas, there are many young people with strong potential, but they remain excluded from industries due to lack of capital, land, or formal education.
