The Dedicated Fund on Branding, Upgrading and Domestic Sales (BUD Fund) is a flagship government initiative managed by the Hong Kong Productivity Council (HKPC) as the Secretariat. Established by the HKSAR Government, its core objective is to provide financial leverage to local enterprises—specifically non-listed SMEs—seeking to grow beyond the domestic Hong Kong market. The fund operates on the principle of strategic expansion, encouraging businesses to move up the value chain through three specific pillars: Branding: Developing brand identity, image design, and promotion strategy. Upgrading: Restructuring operations, introducing automation, and adopting new technologies or management systems. Domestic Sales: Expanding sales networks and establishing distribution channels in Mainland China and international markets.
