Cars

Ed is in Southampton at one of Britain’s largest ports to see our biggest export market - Cars. The industry employs over 850’000 people, more than the populations of Glasgow or Manchester, meaning no other product has a bigger direct impact on our economy. This highly collaborative, global business relies entirely on international trade and that means huge flows in and out of our country every day, and Ed wants to find out how that works. Cherry is at a car plant located firmly in Britain’s manufacturing heartland up North to explore the manufacturing technique called Just-In-Time which see’s many parts arriving into Britain on a daily basis. Ade is discovering how our spending power is currently helping prop up the world’s supercar companies.
