Trump's 125% Tariffs on China: How to Avoid Supply Chain Shocks and Logistics Fallout
About this episode
President Donald Trump paused reciprocal tariffs on more than 180 countries and economies this week, but hiked tariffs on Chinese imports up to 125%. We break down how U.S.-China tariffs are changing supply chains, impacting freight costs and putting pressure on business logistics across industries like electronics, cars, packaging materials and everyday consumer goods.
We explore how companies have already adapted to the tariffs, including China's retaliatory tariffs of 84% on U.S. goods, to keep their supply chains moving. We unpack some companies' new sourcing strategies and logistics shifts and what the tariffs mean for company balance sheets, customer wallets and the economy in 2025.
