Game On: Explore the Commonwealth

Discover trade opportunities across the Commonwealth

With one year to go until the Commonwealth Games 2022 register now for this great opportunity for experienced Midlands exporters to discuss the prospects for their products or services with DIT trade advisers and overseas delivery partners in 50+ markets across the Commonwealth. 

Today’s 54 Commonwealth countries account for over 17% of world GDP in Purchasing Power Parity and contain 2.4 billion of the world’s 7½ billion people. Moreover, many Commonwealth countries have favourable demographics compared with several major European countries, where working populations are expected to age and shrink.

Even without any formal arrangements, trading between Commonwealth countries is 19% cheaper than with non-members. Massive costs cuts come from shared history, cultural links, common legal systems, business practices, and a common language between many Commonwealth countries. This is also known as ‘the Commonwealth advantage’.
