I WAS very pleased to read Jeremy Craddock’s article regarding the single market (January 26).

As a passionate Remainer, I agree with you that leaving will be damaging to the British economy.

As a director of a small manufacturing company which exports 45 per cent of its goods to the EU, I am very concerned.

We know how difficult and expensive it would be to continue dealing with these valued customers.

This figure is, I believe, about the same percentage as the rest of the UK exports to the EU.
