Still in the agri-food sector, a special mention goes to the market for organic products, which has been strongly developed for years, testifying to the growing attention of Danish consumers to quality food and sustainability.<\/p>\n<p>It is no coincidence that\u00a0<strong>12% of retail sales<\/strong>\u00a0in the food sector are now represented by organic products.<\/p>\n<p>As far as services are concerned, the\u00a0<strong>banking sector<\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0<strong>transport<\/strong>\u00a0play a leading role, with the country being the fifth-largest maritime operator in the world.<\/p>\n<p>Finally,\u00a0<strong>tourism<\/strong>\u00a0is also a very important item for the Danish economy, with the capital Copenhagen attracting the majority of visitors from abroad.<\/p>\n<h3>What to sell in the Danish market<\/h3>\n<p>The\u00a0<strong>inevitable economic downturn<\/strong>\u00a0in 2020 undoubtedly compromised the vitality of the Danish economy.<\/p>\n<p>For Italy too, this situation has meant a\u00a0<strong>reduction in trade<\/strong>, with the decline partially offset by the first half of 2021.<\/p>\n<p>In fact, as the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.infomercatiesteri.it\/public\/osservatorio\/schede-sintesi\/danimarca_65.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\">latest available data shows<\/a>,\u00a0Italian exports to the country exceeded\u00a0<strong>\u20ac1,971 million between January and July<\/strong>, still below 2019 levels but recovering.<\/p>\n<p>Indeed, there is no shortage of opportunities for companies in many sectors.
