With the decision to leave the European Union and with the 29th of March fast approaching there is an air of uncertainty within much of the UK construction industry.

At FDS, we are firm believers that we must embrace the challenges that the ongoing Brexit negotiations will bring. Whatever the outcome may be, we can assure our customers of our best efforts to mitigate risks to their supply chain.

We take pride in delivering excellent customer service, which will not change irrespective of the Brexit outcome. We have undertaken a thorough review of our supply chain to minimise the impact of any major changes following Brexit, thus minimising disruptions for our valued customers.

We have reviewed the availability of all critical products and are ensuring that either we or our suppliers will hold additional stock for any items considered “at risk” during the interim period following the exit. We do not have any issues regarding labour.

Whilst we cannot guarantee that any exit will be completely seamless, we do not believe it will impact on the service we provide.

We trust this clarifies our approach.
