UK seen as more competitive place to manufacture

Manufacturers are increasingly confident about sector prospects for 2024, and the majority see the UK as more competitive place to locate compared to twelve months ago. They highlight potential to move ahead of European rivals, with opportunities coming from new products, digital technologies and expansion into new markets. These are some of the findings from a new survey published by Make UK and PwC, with Cara Haffey, leader of manufacturing at PwC, saying: “Despite January’s to-do list likely looming large, as the headwinds of sustained economic challenges, geopolitical instability and steep employment and energy costs continue, the horizon seems brighter.”

With best regards
