The Welsh economy approaches its departure from the EU in a strong position. Such strength is demonstrated in Wales\u2019s ability to attract globally recognised brands such as Aston Martin and Qatar Airways.<\/p>
<\/p>
As we leave the EU we are seeking to take advantage of all opportunities available to us. We want to ensure that Britain becomes a global leader in free trade, and Ministers and officials in DIT are working with counterparts in a range of markets to promote the UK, including Wales as a great place to do business and with which to trade.<\/p>

The UK Government is developing a trade policy that will work for every part of the United Kingdom, and will continue to champion the interests of companies and citizens across the UK, including in Wales.<\/p>
