Answer
Answered by Cabinet Secretary for Economy, Energy and Planning
Our Export Action Plan sets out a comprehensive programme of support for businesses in Wales to develop existing and new overseas markets for their products and services. This includes support and activities to inspire businesses to take up exporting, build their export capability, find potential new clients in overseas markets and visit target markets. For example, through our dedicated New Exporter programme, we are delivering a trade visit to the Netherlands next week, supporting a cohort of Welsh businesses to explore new export opportunities.
