Rush orders, cut costs, crossed fingers: How small businesses are preparing for tariffs

Summary

Small businesses are preparing for potential tariffs on imports from Mexico, Canada, and China by stockpiling inventory, negotiating with suppliers, and considering price increases.

Some businesses are exploring alternative suppliers or reducing product offerings to mitigate the impact of tariffs.
