According to the official statistics, the UK’s export has shown steady growth in the first half of 2018 and has reached a proud £620 billion this year, demonstrating a substantial rise by almost 7% in goods and about 3% in the service sector.

“Demand for UK goods and services being higher than ever before. The latest trade figures are […] good news as overall exports rose to £620 billion and the trade deficit continued to narrow by £4 billion.
