19 November 2015

The Exporting is GREAT campaign roadshow visits Yorkshire and the Humber in November to promote Exporting is GREAT, the Government's most ambitious export campaign to inspire 100,000 more businesses to trade overseas by 2020.

As part of a nationwide tour, the 32 tonne Exporting is GREAT truck will tour the region from 23rd November to 30th November inclusive with international trade advisors and other export experts on board to provide face-to-face advice, expertise and presentations to both first time and established exporting businesses.

For example, first-time exporters are invited to attend to register their interest in 'live' export opportunities, access tailored support to help them trade overseas, learn about other Exporting is GREAT events and subscribe to a Government guide to exporting.
