UK - EU trade has gotten easier, still difficulties with duty and import documents Almost six months ago when Brexit first came into place, UK importers and exporters were having to deal with whole new set of rules and regulations, some of which were obvious and some quite a bit less so. Davis Worldwide was one of the companies at the forefront of implementing and understanding the new set of rules and regulations, even then it was a tough time. “We are still importing and exporting fresh produce between the UK and Europe,” said Mark Wright, Senior Commercial Manager at Davis Worldwide. “We don’t do much directly to Ireland anymore, everything is going to The Netherlands and is cross-docked there and on to Ireland. This does add quite a few extra costs, some of which we have had to absorb ourselves.”
