Britain’s SME manufacturers have urged the Government to improve their access to funding to enable them to achieve their full growth potential. A new survey by Make UK, the manufacturers’ organization, has revealed that around 66 percent of SME manufacturers in Britain expand or grow by re-investing past profits as they have no other funding options.
