Important Notice for Northern Ireland Customers
As part of the Northern Ireland Protocol, Northern Ireland remains aligned with the EU single market for goods, while the rest of the UK does not.
New regulations taking effect on 13th December 2024 require small UK businesses like ours to:
-
Appoint an EU-based compliance representative
-
Submit additional certification and product safety documentation
These changes significantly increase administrative and cost burdens for Northern Ireland shipping.
As a result, we have made the difficult decision to temporarily suspend deliveries to Northern Ireland.
We sincerely apologise to all affected customers and appreciate your patience and understanding.
We remain hopeful that with future regulatory clarity, we will be able to resume shipping to Northern Ireland.
