From Cartwright & Butler’s Yorkshire bakery to customers around the globe, this is how Heathrow helps British SMEs grow through trade. As the UK’s largest port by value, Heathrow connects UK businesses with international customers and new markets, from Europe to Asia and beyond.
Since retailing at Heathrow, Cartwright & Butler has seen a 78% increase in sales compared to 2024, demonstrating how airport retail can help export-ready brands scale internationally.
Expanding Heathrow will mean more capacity, stronger trade links and more growth for UK businesses.
Join our Retail Director, Fraser, and External & Government Affairs Manager, Anjali, on a visit to the bakery to see what partnership looks like in practice: craft, quality, and global ambition coming together.
