Please join us on 8th June at 5.00 pm where we will be joined by Stephen Sidkin and Emma Roake of Fox Williams LLP to discuss how to work with agents and distributors in the EU post-Brexit.

Stephen leads the commerce and technology department at Fox Williams. He specialises in advising on entering into and termination of international supply chain agreements, in particular for fashion and tech clients. Among other things, he is UKFT’s go-to authority on the legal issues of working with agents and distributors.

Emma is a legal director and is regularly involved in advising fashion businesses on their agency and distributorship agreements.

There is no doubt that business post-Brexit has been hit with enormous changes, some of which has been easier to navigate than others. The way fashion and textile businesses contract with agents and distributors is likely to have changed because of this, and knowing how to work through the changes to achieve your end goals is essential.

Topics to be covered:

• Legal issues around working with agents and distributors in the UK, EU and beyond
• Agent sample rules post-Brexit
• Issues around using non-UK law on contracts
• The general view of the UK amongst EU agents and distributors
