Manchester-based eCommerce and marketplace expert Digitl is partnering with the Department of International Trade North West to run a series of free webinars throughout 2018, aimed at helping retail businesses to grow.
Part of Exporting is Great, the webinars will offer ways for businesses to increase turnover and explore ways to sell internationally through eCommerce.
Founder of Digitl Darren Ratcliffe said: “In light of Brexit, businesses are looking for new and alternative ways to expand and export and we are placing a key focus on international growth to assist.
