With tariffs increasing from 10% to 25% on Chinese imports, is it time to consider using OMT-Veyhl as your partner in table bases?
Last week, President Trump made it official that Chinese import tariffs are now 25% on thousands of goods coming from China. This directly affects the contract furniture market. The import/export tensions with China are far from over and are causing some uncertainty for companies importing goods from China, creating risk to their product lines. Many large companies are now pulling out of China and sourcing domestically.
