If looking at the volume of trade, Romania is the largest market in the Central and Eastern Europe, second only to Turkey,” Quinton Quayle, the British Ambassador to Bucharest on Wednesday said. Quinton Quayle visited two of the British investors in Romania, Roh Textiles Manufactures, a SME dealing in the textile industry and winemaker Halewood. British exports to Romania in 2002 amounted to some AÃ?430.6 million, up more than 25% compared with the previous year, while imports were worth AÃ?531.7 million, up 16%. ZF
