A study of more than 3,000 UK businesses by Alibaba Group, in partnership with the Institute of Export & International Trade (IOE&IT), has found that a quarter of SMEs do not currently export.
However, the same research finds that 82% of exporters say their international trade fuels innovation, with 81% saying exporting has made their business stronger.
