Gross Profit Shrinking?

Transition to Amish Furniture

Analysts at S&P Global have warned that the latest rounds of tariffs, ranging from 10% to 25%, are squeezing margins for furniture retailers. As a result, some brands have announced list price increases of 4% to 10% to offset the additional duty costs. Meanwhile, Google Trends indicates that U.S. interest in "American-made furniture" has surged by approximately 70% since 2022, reflecting stronger consumer demand for domestically sourced products. Making it a good time to transition your showroom to Amish furniture.
