Businesses involved in cross-border trade began the year with significant momentum, as indicated by the latest data from InterTradeIreland’s All-Island Business Monitor. In the first quarter, all-island trade in goods reached €2.5 billion. The survey reveals that cross-border traders are surpassing their peers in various business metrics. The report makes it clear that cross-border traders are in the strongest position – 41% are in growth mode compared to 26% of firms with no cross-border sales. In addition, businesses that trade across the border also report stronger sales growth and higher profit margins with 1 in 3 (32 per cent) of cross-border traders having a profit margin of over 10 per cent compared to 1 in 5 (21%) of those that don’t trade cross-border.
