UK-India FTA Boosts Manchester for APAC Manufacturers

The UK-India Free Trade Agreement has started, which is expected to increase trade between the two countries by a lot by 2040.

Manchester, a city in the UK, is trying to attract manufacturers from Asia-Pacific to set up businesses there.

Manchester has many advantages like a strong workforce, lower costs, and good connections to other countries.

The agreement reduces taxes on machinery and other goods, making it easier for companies to do business.

Many Indian and Japanese companies have already invested in Manchester, creating jobs and strengthening ties between the UK and India.

A team from Invest Manchester will visit India to discuss more business opportunities.
