Business: Slough
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Business and Trade, what support his Department is providing to businesses in Slough to increase levels of exports of (a) goods and (b) services.
Answered by Gareth Thomas
DBT supports companies like Montmartre Patisserie in Slough to export to locations such as Japan, Singapore and Spain.
UK businesses, including those in Slough, can access DBT’s wealth of export support via Great.gov.uk. This comprises an online support offer and our wider network of support, which could include the Export Academy, our International Markets network, UK Export Finance and our International Trade Advisers, who use their experience of exporting and knowledge of SMEs to provide one-to-one tailored support to targeted businesses. Alongside this, across the UK, our Export Champions are sharing their experience of trading internationally, encouraging other businesses to export.
