Britain has a lot to be proud of, as David Cameron would likely say, and so it makes sense for businesses to focus on exporting their wares across the world.
The latest export figures show that the value of goods Britain has exported has tumbled by 3.5% to £75.7 billion in the three months to September, so firms are under pressure to get selling and go global.
