Norfolk exporters will have the opportunity to discuss the economic climate in Norfolk and the export opportunities that are available to local businesses with Tim Pike, the Bank of England’s Agent for the East of England at the Norfolk Chamber’s Bank of England Lunch on Friday 5 July 2013.
This is on the back of the recent BCC Quarterly Economic Survey (QES) Quarter 2, which highlighted that both the Norfolk manufacturing and service sector export levels continued to be robust. Norfolk’s manufacturing export levels exceeded both the national and East of England results. Whilst the Norfolk service sector export results matched those of the East of England region and surpassed the national totals.
Tracey Howard, International Trade Director at Norfolk Chamber of Commerce said: “Despite the tough economic climate, Norfolk exporters continue to gain strength and are demonstrating the necessary resilience and confidence to invest and increase their export potential.”
