Growing exports

International trade can be one of the most important drivers of business growth. Our expert knowledge enables us to work with businesses seeking to access or further develop global markets to drive their profitability and expansion.

We’ve been proud to be a UK Trade and Investment and now a Department for International Trade (DIT) delivery partner since 2007, supporting the Government’s export strategy. Under the DIT brand, we offer a number of key services that can be tailored to meet the needs of your business:

  • overseas market intelligence and market selection advice
  • practical one to one support from expert trade advisers
  • access to information, contacts, advice and support through overseas business networks in over 100 markets
  • connections to major contract purchasers alongside opportunities to explore new markets via trade missions and country visits
  • financial support for trade development activity that will result in export sales such as participation in overseas trade fairs and exhibitions, market visits and consultancy support
  • online information and email alerts highlighting export opportunities, major international contracts, joint ventures and partnerships.

Some of our export activity is delivered in conjunction with Midlands Engine

For more information email us or call the International Trade Centre on 0345 052 4001. You can also keep up to date with the latest news and events by following us on Twitter @tradegovuk_em.

We also work closely with our local Chambers of Commerce which offer complementary services such as logistics advice, documentation services, market information and a range of export training opportunities and international trade events. You can find your nearest Chamber here.

We're currently seeking proposals on data sourcing and export propensity modelling to help support the delivery of our trade work for DIT and the Internationalising SMEs project which is part-funded by the European Regional Development Fund.  For more information follow the links below:
