Now DPD halts ALL EU deliveries as British firms blast 'perfect storm' of Brexit bureaucracy, IT woes and confusion as fishermen complain of a 'brick wall' in ports
- They lashed out at new 'obstacles' slowing exports via Calais and Boulogne
- Some consignments delayed 48 hours, running the risk of being rejected
- Came as retailers warned that a new wave of red tape and tariffs is hitting trade
A major parcel courier halted deliveries to the EU today as firms complained of a 'perfect storm' of post-Brexit changes hitting business.
DPD UK said today it was pausing its road delivery services into Europe, including Ireland, until at least Wednesday, citing issues resulting from the EU-UK trade deal agreed last month, which came into effect on December 31.
It came as retailers warned that a new wave of red tape and tariffs was hitting trade.
The British Retail Consortium (BRC) said that 'at least 50' of its members face potential tariffs for re-exporting goods following the agreement of the Trade and Co-operation Agreement (TCA).
Marks and Spencer boss Steve Rowe also warned that, despite the UK signing a free trade agreement with the EU, new rules and regulations are set to 'significantly impact' its overseas ventures in Ireland, the Czech Republic and France, although he insisted the company is 'actively working to mitigate' the issues.
Meanwhile UK fishermen lasted out, saying British-landed fish are being left to rot because of a post-Brexit 'brick wall of bureaucracy in French ports.
