Helping UK fashion and textile companies to trade overseas
UKFT’s International Business team helps members to maximise potential sales, in the UK and overseas markets. We look at your product and help you to identify your competitors and define your potential markets, build on business that you may already have, or discuss changes that you may need to make to your product exportable.
Here we have produced a series of guides to some of the key export markets for UK fashion and textiles and the latest Free Trade Agreements. We have also produced guides to some of the key import markets for UK fashion brands.
The information set out in these guides provide a basic overview, however, UKFT has much more information and experience of how these markets work.
For more information on how to export your products and to join UKFT, read more here or contact us at info@ukft.org
