What Brexit means for the food and grocery sector
IGD considers aspects of Brexit that will affect the industry.
IGD's chief Economist, James Walton, explores how the path to Brexit is already impacting the food and grocery market.
Four aspects of Brexit considered
1. Sterling is weak but stable … for now. Is this good for the grocery sector?
2. Consumer confidence is holding steady but businesses are nervous. What’s really going on and will it last?
3. Brexit negotiations – Brexit means Brexit say ministers but progress, what progress? We look at what has happened so far and what the process of negotiations could look like.
4. International reactions – The international response was cautious at first but now people are becoming more outspoken. Can the UK count on its traditional friends?
