Tea Smith, a local business in Omaha, is taking proactive measures by purchasing tea in bulk as it navigates the complexities of potential tariffs on imports from China. The uncertainty surrounding these tariffs has created a challenging environment for the company, which heavily relies on Chinese tea for its offerings.
The owner expressed concerns about the unpredictable nature of trade policies and how they could impact costs and supply. "The level of uncertainty makes it very difficult to prepare," they noted, highlighting the anxiety felt by many businesses in similar situations. This cautious approach reflects a broader trend among companies that depend on international suppliers, as they seek to mitigate the risks associated with fluctuating tariffs and trade regulations.
