Exporting isn’t just big businesses putting goods on a ship and sending them around the world. There are thousands of small businesses in the UK that are going global and exporting. FSB’s research shows that one in five of our members are currently exporting while one in ten are considering exporting. Taken together, these stats highlight the significant contribution to the UK’s role in the global economy and there is potential for small firms to contribute even more.

From designers to vegan pet food producers to architects! So many of our small firms are sharing their goods and services around the globe!

So, who are the business owners behind these small firms? What are they exporting? Where are they exporting?

Our campaign tells the stories of our small businesses going global.
