UK firms react: ‘A huge blow to Scotland’s whisky industry’

US President Donald Trump has unveiled a list of tariffs on countries across the world that send their products to America.
The UK will be subject to 10% tariffs on imports from the UK and 20% on European Union imports.
We’ve spoken to firms which export to the US from England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland about what they think the impact on their businesses will be.
For Scotch whisky makers, the US is its most important overseas market – worth £971 million a year.
Anthony Wills runs the Kilchoman distillery on the island of Islay and says he feels “deflated” at the prospect of tariffs. “It’s a huge blow for the industry,” he says.
