Praise to @tradegovuk . And it should be pointed out that they help UK business and thereby the UK. What they do saves jobs in the UK. theguardian.com/politics/2021/…
I should point out: they give advice in the regulatory environment as it is. If you are outside the single market and the customs union but want to serve many clients inside it, setting up a distribution centre makes sense...
(And as @JornTychsen rightly points out: EU business who used to send a lot of B2C from the EU might consider doing the same).
Finally: yes, it means moving jobs from the UK elsewhere. But better to do that and safeguard the profits the company makes thereby preserving its business overall than losing the profits and possibly the whole business.
(And also: civil servants giving advise that helps at the risk of creating newspaper headlines embarrassing the government are GREAT)
