Information and support about how to grow your export business will also be available at the ‘Export Wales’ event on 10 April in Venue Cymru, Llandudno.

Businesses will also have the opportunity to discuss trading in foreign markets with experts in the following markets; India, the Gulf (UAE, Qatar and Saudi Arabia), USA, China, Japan, Canada, Western Europe and Mexico.
