Webinar: Your guide to exporting to Germany - Market insights and practical tips for UK companies
Germany is the world’s fourth largest economy (World Bank, 2020) and largest economy in Europe. It is highly industrialised, diverse and stable, offering long-term potential and many opportunities for UK businesses offering innovative, quality products.
In 2020, £49.0 billion of goods were exported to Germany, making Germany the UK’s second largest export market for goods. In this webinar experts from the UK's Department for International Trade (DIT) and Germany Trade and Invest (GTAI) will provide UK based companies practical advice on exporting goods and services as well as outlining the range of support available to exporters.
