Export to Expand - the essential steps to ensure a successful launch

Export to Expand

Exporting can be confusing, particularly if you are new to it. But ignoring the opportunity can be detrimental to your long term business success. If you are the owner or manager of a growing UK business looking to penetrate international markets then "Export to Expand" is right for you.

If you are not sure where to begin, or have already dipped your toe in the water but now have more questions than when you started join us today to start your journey to export success.

Is now the right time to export? What does it actually involve? How much will it cost? How long will it take to succeed in a new country? Which countries should we target first? Do we have the people to pull it off? Do they have the necessary vision, skills and confidence? What if the initiative fails? What if there’s too much demand abroad? How do we maximise the chances of success? Are we risking our long-term competitiveness by not entering new markets? What does Brexit really mean for us? How do I keep on the right side of trade laws? What practicalities do I need to consider when exporting?
