Is the UK ready for the Brexit import controls, and will these push up prices?
The proposals from the UK government for its new post-Brexit border strategy - beginning this autumn - will require all goods arriving from the EU that are subject to sanitary and phytosanitary (SPS) controls – including fruit, vegetables, meat, dairy and plant – to pass through ports or government-operated facilities such as its new inland border control post at Sevington in Kent.
