Every summer, countries across Europe apply seasonal driving bans and restrictions on the use of Heavy Goods Vehicles (HGVs), coinciding with the summer shutdown period. We outline what UK businesses need to know about the upcoming truck driving bans and restrictions, and what your business can to do to avoid any potential disruption.
For many businesses, logistics decisions are still made the same way they were a decade ago – often being determined by a singular deciding factor: price. On the surface, this approach feels logical but a fragmented model can quietly create a range of hidden costs, inefficiencies, and risks.
Logistics sits at the heart of global trade and whether you’re importing raw materials or expanding into new export markets, understanding Free Trade Agreements (FTAs) is essential for building a competitive, future-ready supply chain.
