British Food Industry: No-deal Brexit Could Lead to Shortages（节选）

　　Britain could experience shortages of some fresh foods for weeks or even months if the country leaves the European Union without a trade deal.

　　A British food industry group made the warning Wednesday. It said, if Britain withdraws from the EU without a trade agreement, fresh food may be left to go bad on trucks at ports.

　　Tim Rycroft is the Chief Operating Officer of Britain’s Food and Drink Federation. He said, “We’re not going to starve, but there will be shortages of fresh food and some specialist ingredients. It’s going to be a little bit unpredictable.”

　　“Given that food very often is perishable... we expect that there will be some selective shortages of food in the weeks and months following no-deal Brexit,” Rycroft said. “There will be some shortages and price rises.”

　　Officials of large food companies warn that leaving the EU, known as Brexit, could cause shortages because they may be unable to fill warehouses before the Christmas holiday.

　　The British food industry employs 450,000 people. The industry says Brexit may be the country's greatest challenge since World War II.
