Our trade data from HMRC helps you to understand a company's import and export activity.
The handy graph at the top of the page offers insights into the number of commodities imported and exported dating back several years.
Further down, you can drill into the specific categories of products that the company is most frequently trading in, helping you to identify their core focus.
What a company trades is a great way to identify what industry it operates in; particularly useful for those with a limited public presence!
