Breakbulk and Project Cargo Market Report: Tariffs, Sanctions and Shipping
It didn’t take long for President Donald Trump to live up to his campaign promises to impose tariffs on a wide range of imports from multiple countries. Less than two weeks into his second term, Trump’s administration slapped 25% tariffs on North American free trade partners Canada and Mexico, and another 10% on top of already steep tariffs in China. Canada and Mexico quickly retaliated, and soon thereafter the tariffs were put on hold pending negotiations. As the threat of an outright trade war percolates, questions about whether the initial threats were merely negotiating tactics have been answered quickly, but other questions remain.
Understanding the minutiae of importing and supply chains, including cargo valuations, classifications, and country of origins, will be increasingly important for breakbulk importers as the Trump administration imposes and rescinds tariffs. What can businesses do to navigate these challenges? How should importers approach sourcing in China in light of the new environment? Are shippers looking to front load cargo ahead of the April deadline?
Our panel of experts will discuss the pressures on the breakbulk and project cargo market from the tariff announcements.
