Exporting Companies - the Key to UK Success

A survey performed by the British Chambers of Commerce (BCC) showed that 3/4 of exporters have traded internationally for more than 5 years, while new exporters (0-2 years exporting) represent only 11% of exporting companies.
The survey also showed that once companies begin to export they rapidly expand, as 64% of exporters trade with 6 or more countries.

In this context, the British Chambers of Commerce claim that export and trade growth should be one of the essential goals of the next government's economic strategy.

The BCC proposed a number of measures to assist new exporters, and help existing exporters reach new international markets:

- Continue to develop a global B2B network of British Chambers and business groups – connecting British companies with customers and opportunities for growth in the fastest-growing overseas markets.

- Continue work to bring UK Export Finance up to par with the world’s best export finance agencies.

- Ensure UK businesses have access to world-class digital infrastructure by leading the world in the development of 5G technology.

- Drive the completion and enforcement of the EU Single Market in goods, services and e-commerce.

What is more, France is the 2nd largest exporter in Europe, its major exports being machinery, transportation equipment, aerospace equipment and plastics. The country's main imports include machinery, automobiles and crude oil.

France exports a large variety of products and services. The French government provides significant subsidies to the farm sector, making France one of the world’s largest exporters of agricultural products in Europe, famous for its wines and cheeses.

The primary destination for French exports are European countries, Germany being France's main economic partner, accounting for more than 17% of the country's exports and 19% of total imports. Only about 1/3 of all French exports go to non-European countries, situation that can change to the better due to the process of globalization and growth of the e-commerce.
