Sowing the seeds for export growth

A Wearside firm specialising in water storing polymer technology and applications for the environmental protection and horticulture industries has been developing its export growth with the help of UK Trade & Investment (UKTI).

In the past three years, with the support of UKTI’s Gateway to Global Growth (G3) initiative and the Overseas Market Introduction Service (OMIS), Agricultural Polymers International Ltd has secured a host of new business in overseas markets including Palestine, Indonesia, South Africa and Abu Dhabi for its Broadleaf P4 range of water storing granules and other polymer products. The company has now set its sights on Mauritius and India.

Paul Griffin, Director at Agricultural Polymers International Ltd, explained:
“The support we’ve had from UKTI has really helped us to grow the business in additional overseas markets at a much faster rate than we could have hoped. We’re now looking at commissioning an OMIS report for India to help identify key contacts in both the private sector and local government.”

“Our recent environment award, presented at the Houses of Parliament, as a ‘Green Hero’ company with the international endorsement and recognition that brings should help with the OMIS and other UKTI action we have ongoing to enable further export growth,” he added.

For more information about the wide range of support services available through UK Trade & Investment to help your company succeed overseas call the North East International Trade Hotline on 0845 05 05 054 or email: enquiries@uktinortheast.org.uk.
