About ExportExplore
Since launch in 2018, ExportExplore has carved out a reputation based on our unique background built upon international marketing and the economic development industry, dealing in both Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) and Trade Development. Working with some of the most effective and ambitious government agencies and expanding companies who want to make an impact in international markets. We deliver impact.
We are a team made up of Sales Professionals, Researchers, Analysts and Creatives based in Belfast, Northern Ireland, but spread across the Republic of Ireland, Great Britain and Continental Europe, ensuring the right person with the right skills is adding value to the project, and our clients are only charged for their share, and not to cover expensive overheads. You can learn more about our team in our Partners section.
