UK meat exports cancelled due to Brexit, says BMPA
BMPA says this may affect the supply chain and have "severe" financial consequences for the British meat companies which will have to win back their customers.
” Last week we were inundated with inquiries from members wanting information on what exactly is going to happen.
“Despite numerous crisis meetings with Government officials, we are still no closer to getting definitive guidance on tariffs, certification and health marks that our members desperately need. Unfortunately, the disruption has already started and damage is already being done," said Nick Allen Chief Executive of the BMPA.
Allen added that due to the lack of clarity around Brexit orders are being cancelled and "efectively closing-off once lucrative export markets to British firms". He said the problem affects the whole food supply chain.
