Export success

In 2020, DriveWorks VP and Co-Founder, Maria Sarkar MBE, was honored to be recognized as an Export Champion by the UK Government Department for Business & Trade. Export Champions are from UK companies that have successfully sold overseas and want to share their insight to encourage others to consider growing their international business through exporting. This year we are very pleased to be celebrating Maria’s 5th consecutive year as an Export Champion, as well as the award of an MBE for Services to Manufacturing.
