UK May Have a “Hard Brexit” Food Trade Import and Export Issues Become Hidden Worries

Pubtime:2019-04-08Author:Source: Hits:

According to foreign media reports on the 30th, UK’s Brexit has been dragging its feet for a long time, and the problem of food transport between UK and Europe has become a major concern. At present, no one knows what to do about the import and the export of UK food and other trade after Brexit. Certain food suppliers pointed out that if a hard Brexit occurs, they will not know what to do.

Approximately one-third of UK's food supply originates from the European Union, with a particular demand for fresh fruits and vegetables. At present, the UK government has no new policy on future inspection of goods at customs checkpoints, and has not provided importers and exporters with any trade agreement system with countries outside the European Union. The incident has even left many large global food suppliers stranded.
