Germany's biggest logistics firm halts shipments to post-Brexit UK
CGTN Europe • 1m 52s
Germany's largest logistics company DB Schenker has become the latest firm to suspend shipments between the EU and Britain.
As of Friday, the company was working to resolve a backlog of deliveries that's grown since the United Kingdom left the EU customs area on December 31. Many of the goods have been sent without the correct customs documents.
The company stopped accepting new shipments earlier in the week and has said it is "working non-stop" to resolve post-Brexit issues.
