Forth Trading Intelligence publishes free analysis on international supply chains, sourcing trends, and global trade developments — written for UK buyers, distributors, and trade professionals who need clarity, not noise.
The UK–India trade agreement eliminates tariffs on 99% of Indian goods. But five years of BACI trade data show that India's current UK market share — across a £700bn annual import economy — sits far below its manufacturing capacity in the sectors that matter most. We measure the gap, chapter by chapter.
