A business in Cumbria is considering hiring extra staff to deal with the added paperwork caused by Brexit and warns of exports being delayed by eight weeks.
Businesses in the county are calling on the government to provide a support package for the aviation sector and other exporters suffering due to the economic downturn brought on by Brexit and the COVID-19 pandemic.
Figures by the British Chamber of Commerce show that UK export figures are down by 41 per cent, with a German-British Chamber of Industry and Commerce study also released this month highlighting similar issues.
