News: SYITC see rise in exports in the region
South Yorkshire International Trade Centre (SYITC) has seen a rise in export documentation by 20 per cent during the last six months.
The rise comes on the back of a renewed focus on an export driven economy buoyed by favorable exchange rates for UK exporters and resulted in a successful year for SYITC.
The centre is a partnership of all the South Yorkshire Chambers and offers broad support for businesses locally to grow their global market – a key area outlined in the proposals by the newly launched Local Enterprise Partnership.
Stuart Steel, head of international trade at SYITC, said: "The rise in export documentation is pleasing to see and follows the work we have done around developing a new strategy for a more coordinated approach to international support.
"We've developed new services which are non-competitive with other local providers and are looking to form partnerships with relevant key organisations that support international trade.
"SYITC continue to support companies that export through documentation, training, language services, events and consultancy services."
Richard Wright, executive director of Sheffield Chamber, added: "The Chambers in South Yorkshire will continue to promote international trade as a key area for business growth and will directly support importers and exporters with relevant services like export documentation and letters of credit so necessary to their everyday business.
"Great businesses need customers and these are increasingly global. It is no longer enough to focus on the home market or even Europe. To really exploit products commercially you have to sell them world-wide. SYITC makes that process easy to understand and helps you avoid the many pitfalls."
