Good morning,
FDF has issued the following press notice:
In response to the publication of the Government's Yellowhammer Report, Food and
Drink
Federation Chief Executive Ian Wright CBE said:
“It is as the Food and Drink Federation have been saying for the best part of
two years now - it lays
bare the grisly crisis facing the UK's food and drink supply chain in a no-deal
Brexit scenario.
“And shoppers have rightly come to expect a wide range of products on
supermarket shelves. In a no-
deal Brexit scenario there would be significant and adverse changes to product
availability, and random
shortages.”
“Government must be upfront about the chaos a no-deal Brexit would bring.”
