Korea (South)

Often thought of as a difficult market, South Korea is worth the effort. It has a wealthy population and a predicted economic growth rate of 5% in 2010, making it the 4th largest economy in Asia and the 14th globally. With the introduction of the EU/South Korea Free Trade Agreement and a passion for UK goods, South Korea is becoming a lucrative market with numerous and varied opportunities.

In 2009 UKTI helped nearly 400 companies to do business, twice as many as in 2008.
