Tariffs are taxes on imports that suppliers pass on via higher unit costs. This increases COGS - squeezing gross margins, drives retail price hikes (potentially reducing demand), and creates cost volatility, making budgeting & forecasting harder. Follow our blog for more supply chain insights
Industries hit hardest include electronics (especially semiconductors and consumer devices), automotive components, textiles and apparel, and energy (particularly Canadian potash and oil). U.S. tariffs on Chinese and Mexican goods have also strained agricultural machinery, steel, and aerospace sectors. Follow our blog for more supply chain and procurement insights.
-
Work with customs brokers or trade consultants to ensure compliant documentation
-
Use trade credit insurance to buffer against supply chain cost shocks
-
Reassess supply chain resilience: build multi-source strategies
-
Explore bonded warehouses and Foreign Trade Zones (FTZs) to defer or reduce duties
-
- Diversify geographies (e.g. Vietnam + 1, Mexico near-shoring) to source from lower-tariff jurisdictions
- Use Free Trade Agreements (USMCA, RCEP) for preferential rates
- Classify products accurately (HS codes) to ensure correct duty treatment
- Employ tariff engineering (modify product/component origin to meet rules-of-origin)- Offshoring surges (+16% in 2025 survey) as companies chase lower costs
- AI-powered eSourcing tools automate supplier selection & negotiation
- Sustainability mandates push ESG criteria into RFP scoring
- Multi-region sourcing to mitigate geopolitical risk
Follow our blog for insights on sourcing and product trends
- Southeast Asia (Vietnam, Thailand, Malaysia) is absorbing “China + 1” relocations
- India is emerging via government incentives and growing labor pools
- Mexico & Poland are gaining investment in auto, electronics and aerospace as near-shore alternativesRising tensions between the U.S., China, and Russia continue to drive tariff escalations. Trade policy shifts can happen rapidly, with sudden sanctions, embargoes, or tariff increases. Businesses must monitor political developments and maintain agile sourcing and logistics plans.
Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) factors are now baked into sourcing strategies. Many tariffs and trade agreements (like CBAM—Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism in the EU) penalize carbon-intensive imports. Companies must map supplier ESG performance, reduce Scope 3 emissions, and align sourcing with sustainability goals to avoid cost penalties and reputational risks.
