Warning from retail leader as end of transition period looms
Manx consumers may have to change their eating habits and pay more for certain products if the UK fails to secure a trade deal with the EU.
That's the warning from Andy Corrie, retail leader of the Chamber of Commerce, and area manager for Manx Co-oP if no agreement is reached with the bloc.
He says in this event shoppers shouldn't be concerned about a lack of food, but may have to accept price rises on EU products, and occasional shortages.
Mr Corrie insists, despite this, overall supply won't be affected:
These Strand Street shoppers had mixed opinions on potentially having to adapt their eating habits:
'Pressure in the system' but bed figures are wrong says Manx Care
Work permits 'form part of longer-term plan' says Johnston
First Deemster and Clerk of Rolls appointed to senior roles
