[–] glaist@mstdn.im 2 points 3 years ago (1 child) @bernieecclestoned @Mex @unitedkingdom Good point. Brexit probably didn’t help though. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [+] bernieecclestoned@sh.itjust.works -9 points 3 years ago* (last edited 3 years ago) (1 child) Brexit presented a binary option, if you want to trade in the EU, you need a subsidiary in the EU. This was obvious, and the tiny minority of UK companies that export to the EU, which is fewer then 10%, did exactly that. If brexit affected the craft brewing industry, then their association failed to plan. They should have created a co-op and established a warehouse in the EU. I export and import globally, it's just a few forms. It's been going on for centuries, it's not that hard. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] glaist@mstdn.im 0 points 3 years ago (1 child) @bernieecclestoned Out of interest did you vote in favour of Brexit? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] bernieecclestoned@sh.itjust.works 1 point 3 years ago Lexit permalink fedilink source parent
