Navigating new Asian tariffs with proven strategic efficiency; a partnering alliance.

When new policies are enacted, this can cause a series of logistical repercussions resulting in a plethora of operational pitfalls. Many businesses become stagnant when it comes to evolving and adapting to global trade volatility. While pausing to re-assess and evaluate a new redefined approach optimal for a businesses’ longevity, a company can succumb to international competition. Failing to quickly and efficiently adjust to the external state of affairs could very well become the ultimate deterioration of a new or long-standing company with even the highest potential. Tariffs have a trickle-down effect that inhibits the fluidity of the entire supply chain. Tariffs can cause even the most long-term and optimal standing contracts to hesitate and reevaluate their willingness to proceed. Many customers take a temporary pause in operations to engage in a “wait and see approach.” However, while they are taking this brief pause, other companies that have navigated these waters with veteran experience are acclimatizing themselves at the full benefit of the situation. Inexperience with tariffs causes many companies to renegotiate or even pull out of contracts because they are apprehensive of the risks associated. However, well-established companies, especially those who have a pre-existing infrastructure in Asia, have proven to their clients and business partners time and time again that they prepare for the risk and lead you on a path of sustainable growth that is worth the reward.

Companies with established infrastructure in Asia are well versed in the multi-changing political environment and the associated successions that come from them. There are intricate levels to accommodate tariffs and many routes that can be taken to guarantee the continuation of success without any setbacks. Well-established trade companies are experienced in this. They can take advantage of exclusion processes, assess imported product classifications, quickly seek alternative sources of supply, evaluate free-trade zones, assess profit margins, and efficiently renegotiate with suppliers. This level of detail and commitment to supply chain management is the utmost valuable asset in a business, and it is irreplaceable.
