UK represents only 18% of the post brexit EU market. The problem is that that the Uk now is a completely seperate market, so is in direct competition for attention with other non-EU markets. Why should a EU company focus on the UK when e.g. China is a much larger market and growing much faster? Or Japan? Or Brazil? https://data.worldbank.org/indicator/NY.GDP.MKTP.CD?locations=EU-GB-CN-JP https://data.worldbank.org/indicator/NY.GDP.MKTP.CD?location...

Some reasons would include China and Japan being highly protectionist and difficult markets to enter into successfully, the language barriers, but most importantly, distance.
