The project in general worked extremely well and fulfilled a crucial need for companies to trade globally and thus competitively. The project was perfectly timed with supporting mass imports, whilst complimenting their UK production. By combining research help within the project with the trip support, the project was able to greatly enhance the companies' chance of successful trip outcomes.
It was a much needed project, that was in huge demand.
