Exports are central to the Government’s growth mission. For the first time, DBT has integrated its business support offer in a single, accessible place – the Business Growth Service – to help firms start, scale, and succeed. From tailored market advice and free Business Academy training to UK Export Finance and our on-the-ground international network, we are making it easier for businesses to navigate global markets and build resilience. Through Free Trade Agreements (FTAs), businesses can also benefit from tariff reductions and improved market access and DBT works with businesses to ensure they have the tools and knowledge they need to seize these opportunities.
