#marinetrade – A UK government and marine industry-led plan to help UK companies increase exports to countries including China, Brazil and South Korea, and to key sectors, such as offshore oil and gas, naval defence, and leisure boats and equipment is part of a strategy to help marine businesses grow and be more competitive.
For international buyers, specifiers and users, this means UK marine companies will be supported to:
- Identify and pursue major marine business opportunities;
- Develop UK inward investment and exports for international trade;
- Invest in targeted sectors such as marine and offshore wind;
- Increase trade and awareness of marine excellence in high growth markets such as China.
Business Minister Michael Fallon unveiled the strategy at the Tullett Prebon London Boat Show on the 14th January.
