Purchases

Businesses in Wales purchased goods & services to the value of £53.4bn & £13.8bn respectively.
The EU (excluding UK) accounted for 13% of all purchase value and the rest of the world accounted for 5%.
51% of purchases were from other parts of the UK.

2/

What& #39;s interesting is that Welsh business sells 50% of its Goods/Services in Wales itself.

We, however, purchase 69% of Goods/Services from rUK, EU & RoW.

Collectively we need to purchase more goods & services in Wales itself & for that, we also need more Welsh offerings
