Trump Administration Tariffs

• In April 2025 Trump administration announced a series of tariffs that are expected to impact both the United States and the global economy. Some of the 60 trading partners subject to the higher tariffs include China at a 34% tariff, Vietnam at a 46% tariff, and the European Union at a 20% tariff. For most consumers, this caused price increases on common kitchen supplies like pots, pans, knives, utensils, cutting boards, and other kitchen appliances.
  
• China is a leading producer of kitchenware and cookware, as a result many of the products in U.S. markets were impacted by the new tariff. This caused higher wholesale prices for both mid-range and high-end cooking brands that were imported from China.
  
• Most manufacturers that had been importing products from China redirected their production to other nations such as Vietnam, India, or Mexico to prevent the tariffs. This change, however, was accompanied by its own challenges concerning quality control, higher cost of production, and longer lead times.
