trade
 Denmark is ranked number 3 out of 180 countries in
the ease of doing business index.

 60% of the total export value is due to export of goods,

and the remaining 40% is from service exports, mainly
sea transport.

70% of trade flows are inside the European Union.

Probable future in

Brexit & global economic slowdown has threatened the
export prospects.
Labour market is buoyant so economy will not be
sluggish.

analysts.
Overall, the business will strengthen.
