Anand Menon on BBC News: Brexit has had an impact on Trade

New checks brought in under the UK's Brexit trade agreement will cost one business up to £225,000 a year, its co-owner has said.

Meat and dairy products, plants and seeds are among the goods now subject to physical checks when imported to Britain from the European Union from Tuesday.

Businesses have warned the trade checks, which will see import costs increase immediately, are expected to hit smaller companies hardest and lead to price rises being passed on to customers for certain products.

John Davidson, co-owner of flower company Tom Brown Wholesale, said he expected the checks to cost his business between £200,000 and £225,000 per year.

"Usually we try and absorb as much as we can, but those sorts of costs... [it's] just not possible to absorb everything," he said.

The second phase of border controls kicked in from midnight and have been introduced as part of the UK's Brexit trade agreement.
