Tariff Impact on Sourcing and Investment

The United States' 2025 tariff measures reshaped sourcing strategy by elevating landed costs, prompting manufacturers to diversify suppliers and accelerate domestic partnerships. Administrative tasks and procurement timelines are affected, incentivizing contingency stockpiles and multi-sourcing strategies. While tariffs enhance domestic investment returns, they also introduce new risks such as trade flow volatility and administrative burdens. Adaptive organizations are exploring advanced recycling and higher-recovery separation to offset trade exposure.
