On May 12, the U.S. and China agreed to a 90-day pause on steep tariffs, lowering duties on imports and offering businesses a rare chance to regroup. U.S. tariffs on Chinese goods dropped from 145% to 30%, and China reduced its own from 125% to 10%.
In this episode, we walk through three strategies companies can use during the truce:
Accelerate imports to capture short-term savings
Shift sourcing to countries like Vietnam, Mexico, or India
Focus on cost optimization while staying flexible
We also look at how seasonality should shape your decision and what to watch for ahead of the August deadline. Whether you’re in retail, manufacturing, or logistics, this episode offers a clear framework for making smart, time-sensitive moves.
