Impact of U.S. Tariff Changes: The end of the U.S. tariff exemption for small parcels from China and Hong Kong has led some retailers to stop shipping to the U.S., while others are increasing prices significantly due to new tariffs, which can reach up to 145% on many goods.
Shift in E-commerce Dynamics: The removal of "de minimis" duty-free treatment is causing a major shift in e-commerce, with companies needing to provide detailed product origin information and potentially benefiting retailers less reliant on Chinese manufacturing or online sales.
