Exports: EU Countries
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Business and Trade, what steps his Department is taking to help make it easier for small businesses to export to the EU.
Answered by Gareth Thomas
The Department for Business and Trade (DBT) is committed to supporting small businesses to export and access the EU market.
UK businesses can access DBT’s wealth of export support via Great.gov.uk, including the Export Academy, UK Export Finance, the International Markets network with teams based across the EU, and one-to-one support from International Trade Advisers. Unlock Europe is an Export Academy webinar series designed to help UK businesses strengthen relationships with European customers and increase their exporting potential to the EU.
At the coming UK-EU summit, we aim to make progress on tackling barriers to trade and securing outcomes that will help more UK businesses export to our European neighbours.
