Recent years have seen unprecedented upheavals within the European logistics market – with Covid and Brexit happening almost simultaneously, it hit the whole industry hard.  Very hard.  While the world recovers from the Covid lockdown days, Brexit continues to develop and provides us with new challenges and lessons to be learned on a rolling basis.  Some of the UK Government’s planned changes are still in the process of being rolled out – we have still not seen the end of these yet! 

So how do you respond to an ever-changing landscape?  When the rules you adhered to last week, no longer apply? When the documents required for that same shipment last month, are no longer valid and you need to source new forms and new details and complicated commodity codes?  For many businesses this additional burden has caused them to pull back from the EU marketplace, some to cease trading entirely.  The cost and time involved in doing business is becoming prohibitive for many.
