Does anyone have any information regarding buying softdrinks to sell.
I cannot find anywhere in the U.K, but would travil to France/Belguim/Spain if the price was right.
Also, what sort of charge would I have to pay to bring this into the country ?
Any help would be appreciated

Does it have to be Coke? Pepsi is often a good deal in Costco.0

The UK official supplier is Coca-Cola Enterprises Ltd, based in Uxbridge.
Unless you are buying considerable volumes I don't know that you would get much of a discount.
Importing on the grey market is an option, but by the time you have factored in your transport costs, you may find that it would be cheaper to get from Costco in the UK.I'm a Forum Ambassador on the housing, mortgages & student money saving boards.

don't think you need to be VAT registered, you would be running a business wouldn't you?

Grey market imports may not be fake but may have a different formulation if made for a different market ie the sugar content is a lot higher in some countries and the coke flavour more concentrated in others.I'm a Forum Ambassador on the housing, mortgages & student money saving boards.
