The EU is introducing a new measure called the General Product Safety Regulation (GPSR) which will come into effect next Friday (13th). I won't bore you with the details (you can easily look them up online) but the effect is that we will no longer be able to supply anything to customers in any EU country AND in Northern Ireland. Yes, I know NI is still part of the UK, but because of the Northern Ireland protocol they get hit by it as well.
There is a BBC article about it here: www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c9wrz57gkvwo
This measure also applies to companies within the EU so in this case we are benefitting from Brexit, otherwise we would either be out of business or have to massively increase our prices to pay for the extra bureaucracy and paperwork.
A sad time, especially for our A7 friends in the EU and Northern Ireland.
