It has been reported that fashion and homeware retailer ‘Next’, which operates 28 stores in Ireland, has set up an Irish company to manage its cross border customs issues inside the EU if there is a hard Brexit. In its interim results the group said it was "well advanced" in its preparations and is setting up the administrative, legal and physical infrastructure that will be needed to operate effectively if the UK and EU are unable to agree on a free trade agreement.
