<title>BREXIT BACK IN FOCUS FOR IRELAND’S SMALL BUSINESSES</title>
<link>https://www.localenterprise.ie:443/Sligo/Portal/News-and-Events/BREXIT-BACK-IN-FOCUS-FOR-IRELAND’S-SMALL-BUSINESSES.html</link>
<description>After what has been an already challenging year for companies, small businesses are being urged to refocus their minds on Brexit ahead of the December 31st deadline. Irrespective of what happens in talks between the UK and the EU before the end of year cut off, the transition period expires and that will change Ireland’s trading position with the UK. This means any company who exports or imports with or through the UK will be affected and will have to change their processes.</description>
