Arc de Triomphe – Paris, France
Even if your company already has an established customer base locally, there is still lots of potential to grow your sales and profits by expanding your reach to Europe.
Increasing sales from Northern Ireland to markets outside the region is one of the most effective ways to stimulate the local economy and achieve business growth. In fact, businesses that sell outside Northern Ireland are proven to be more innovative, productive, and resilient.
Invest Northern Ireland can help kick-start your exporting journey, however, before you begin it is important to have a clear understanding of your potential market. Here’s a snapshot of the opportunities presented by trading in Europe.
500M+ Consumers: Tap into the EU with over 500 million consumers

Exporting is a strategic decision that requires commitment and planning. Along with determining whether you have the required resources, you also need to think about whether your product or service is appropriate for each target market.
However, it's not as hard as you would imagine to take the initial step in exporting to Europe. Invest NI can offer guidance, and support programmes to help you get export ready. We can also help with market scoping, lead generation, identifying partners, distribution channels and logistics, and more.
