Riyadh – Mubasher: Around seven British small- and medium-sized retail companies are interested in foraying into the Saudi market for the first time, Paul Hardy, director of the UK Department for international trade in Saudi Arabia, said on Thursday.
Briton investors’ keenness to invest in the kingdom has increased on the back of the latest social changes and financial reforms that took place in the oil-rich country, Hardy added.
Bilateral trade between Saudi Arabia and the UK rose to SAR 32.24 billion in 2017, compared to the year before.
