There’s dozens of similar tales, a bike seat manufacturer in Italy was the original one I saw iirc.
What we’re seeing and will continue to see as we move forwards is that barriers to trade leads to less trade. There was an emphasis on tariffs, but tariffs weren’t the prime issue with our EU trade, as we’ve had 45 years of seamless and frictionless trade. Leaving the CU & SM has reintroduced those barriers, barriers that we helped write ironically.
I have been part of a Brexit working group since I joined my current employer just over a year ago. We import our goods from many sources into a central warehouse in the Midlands from which we also supply our retail outlets across Europe as well in the UK. We have a similar set up in North America.
I do spend a lot of my time talking with government authorities across the world - it's what I do and am coming up to 40 years experience in my profession.
But no... wasn't me.
Sorry bro but this is just waffle, it’s simple supply and demand. If the consumer is still there then the market is still open. Imagine talking about shutting down a supply chain due to tariffs if the market is still operating ffs.
Tell you why the market is ****ed in the flowers industry mate, there’s a clue to that in this thread title.

It is to some people mate ... but says much more about them than me ... or indeed reality.
There is a certain kind of arrogance that forms opinions about people they have never met. Thankfully I don't have it ... but then I like to think that's because I'm not a prick
... others are welcome to think I am ...

It's Munse, ain't it?
Whats tariff, roughly 8%?
So a single consumer is paying £1,000 for seeds from Germany? The consumer? These are evidently wholesale deals. The demand isn’t there because nobody is having weddings, parties, nobody can attend funerals, nobody can go into hospitals. Dead industry.
If the demand is there she would adjust her prices accordingly and make it work.
