Manufacturing is an essential part of the UK economy.
The UK's manufacturing industry employs nearly three million people, accounts for roughly half of the country's exports, contributes two thirds of business research and development, and has made the UK the ninth largest manufacturing location in the world.
As an island nation with limited natural resources, the value added that the sector produces contributes significantly to the country's GDP. This includes high value engineering, manufacturing, food and beverage production, and other value added processing.
At Crowe, we have always believed in the importance of the industry to the UK and also to the global economy too. The UK has a track record for innovation, creativity and excellence that continues to have global reputation and market attraction.Our services
