“I think like most people in the UK, we are all waiting to know what Brexit will bring. There will certainly be some challenges from a trading perspective, especially for Danilo as a global licensee across many licences.
At the same time, with the UK being independent of Europe, it may help to reduce the amount of grey imports that appear in our retail stores. So there could be some pros and cons for everyone involved. Ultimately we will have a new set of rules to work within and will need to adapt accordingly to maximise the opportunities that come along.”
