    First Brexit boost

    While economists predict leaving the EU will hurt the UK’s economy, a number of firms have declared themselves early winners after carving out fresh business opportunities:

    ? Brexit has prompted three new services into Liverpool, the UK’s fifth-biggest container port, as logistics companies seek to avoid more congested routes.

    ? A fall in the pound has helped 160-year-old family-owned engineering company Brandauer win new business in France, the Netherlands and Germany.

    ? Watford-based accountancy firm Hillier Hopkins has leant into the additional red tape associated with the EU-UK by becoming an accredited customs agent

            Fury at Gove as exports to EU slashed by 68% since Brexit | Brexit | The Guardian

            In particular he had made clear throughout last year there was an urgent need to increase the number of customs agents to help firms with mountains of extra paperwork. The number now, around 10,000, is still about a fifth of what the RHA says is required to handle the massive increase in paperwork facing exporters.
