IIRC The supermarkets said there would be no problems shipping their stock from GB to NI.
The supermarkets had tons of problems but this will be overcome by sourcing from Ireland and other EU countries instead of Great Britain.

Some foods can no longer be exported from NI to GB.

Brexit: Lough Neagh eels can't be sold in Britain

Lough Neagh eel fishermen will have to find new markets for a fifth of their catch due to Brexit and the operation of the Northern Ireland Protocol.

It means finding new buyers for 50 tonnes of eels, worth £500,000, just months before the start of this year's season.

The fish would traditionally have gone to Billingsgate Market in London and been sold as jellied eels.

But the complexities of Brexit mean that trade is no longer possible.
