Prior to the imposition of trade tariffs by the United States in April 2025, retailers already knew that they had a lot of work to do to enable an agile response to sudden changes in either supply or demand.

Retailers must now make decisions about how to proceed. This report examines those decisions, and features 23 charts across 25 pages of in-depth analysis.
