It’s been a turbulent first few weeks under the Trump administration. The president has enacted sweeping tariffs that impact a wide swath of the manufacturing industry, including a 25% tax on all steel and aluminum imports and a reciprocal tariff policy on all current and potential U.S. trading partners. At the same time, manufacturing demand is rebounding, giving companies renewed optimism for a stronger year ahead.
So, how are companies navigating the administration’s rapid changes while still positioning themselves for growth? We’ve rounded up some of our recent coverage that digs into these questions, with insights from top manufacturers like Stanley Black & Decker and AgCo. Read on for how these companies are shoring up their supply chains to limit tariff exposure while preparing to optimize production capacity.
