Scotland and Northern Ireland have seen an increase in exports to the EU, defying concerns about the impact of Brexit on trade. Meanwhile, factories in England and Wales have experienced a decline in their share of trade with the EU. The UK's overall export performance has been poor compared to other G7 countries, and there are calls for more government support for small and medium-sized factories. However, the report suggests that UK trade patterns may be shifting as companies explore opportunities in other markets.
