We’re delighted to share the excellent feedback from our recent Understanding Commodity Codes training session, delivered on-site at Weir Minerals on 16 June 2025.

The session was rated “excellent” by all delegates for meeting expectations, encouraging participation, and being relevant to their professional needs. Attendees explored the commercial importance of using the UK Trade Tariff and commodity codes correctly and learned how to navigate the General Interpretative Rules and classification guidance for more complex goods.

Here’s what some of our participants had to say:

Ben Hill, Logistics Manager,

‘For me, it was understanding the importance of Origin’

Anisah Bari, Shipping Co-Ordinator,

‘I now know more examples to help explain the theory.’

Rebecca Hoyle, Shipping,

‘The course is very knowledgeable and I would say that anyone would benefit from attending’

Richard Chetcuti, Buyer,

‘For myself, it was the clarity around how the HS codes work and what to look for.’

Barry Eaton, Controller,

‘I benefited from the explanation of the 6/8/10 digit codes’

Beverly Ross, Engineering,

‘It was very informative and I gained knowledge and more understanding of the implications of incorrect codes’

Matthew O’Donnell, Engineering,

‘I enjoyed the deep dive into exploring variances in other countries’

Katherine Sutcliffe, Document Controller,

‘It was a very good insight for me as a total newbie to the topic. Mandy and Stef were very good and knowledgeable at explaining’

Delegates left the session with a clearer understanding of how accurate classification supports global trade compliance and reduces risk.
