UK shoppers have started to avoid buying from EU retailers since the Brexit transition period ended, a new poll suggests. More than a third (34%) of UK shoppers questioned in a poll said they had had stopped buying goods and services from the EU following the end of the post-Brexit transition period.

Specialist technology PR and marketing agency Eskenzi PR & Marketing questioned 1,000 UK adults in early February 2021 via Censuswide. It found that since December 31, when the post-Brexit transition period came to an end and the UK started to trade under the new terms of new UK/EU deal, shoppers were less likely to want to buy from an EU-based retailer.

Almost a quarter (24%) of respondents aged between 16 and 24 said they were put off buying cross-border by increased costs, while 26% said their decision was as a result of increased delays.

“Following all the bad publicity around buying products from the EU post-Brexit, it is clearly having an impact on consumer buying habits”, says Yvonne Eskenzi, co-founder, and director at Eskenzi PR. “It is evident to see that UK consumers are being put off buying goods from the EU due to the various complications Brexit has created. We can only hope that this is a temporary measure. Post-Brexit Britain is still in its embryonic stage, and the true nature of our new relationship will have to be measured across the course of the following months – and indeed, years.”
