Euractive reports that Brexit has led to a surge in new shipping capacity between Ireland and Europe as shippers and their logistics providers try to keep shipments within the single market. “Many Irish hauliers are already charting new routes guaranteeing freight remains inside the single market and customs union, and outside the scope of delay.
