14 December 2020 - Brexit Statement
While Chess have been planning for all eventualities, our focus has been on ensuring we are ready for a “No Deal” scenario. Our biggest priority continues to be ensuring our supply chain and infrastructure are robust, and we limit any impact on our customers. Chess are primarily a services business and trade exclusively in the UK and therefore, we believe any form of Brexit will have minimal or no effect on the services we deliver. Once the UK Government publishes the details of the final Brexit deal, we will update our statement and customers accordingly. Rest assured Chess will continue to serve both our partners and customers to the highest standards.
