Almost 90% of Irish exporters can see new opportunities in the UK market, according to research carried out by Enterprise Ireland.

While the new EU UK trade and cooperation agreement has resulted in changes to how businesses operate in the UK, the market remains Ireland's single largest trading partner.

Out of the 427 Irish exporters surveyed, 83% say their plan is to grow exports to the UK, while 15% say they will sustain exports to the UK.

The survey was conducted ahead of the launch of Enterprise Ireland’s 'Evolve UK' initiative, a programme designed to deliver insights to Irish companies on the evolving UK market through reports, insight bulletins and virtual events.
