Dear US Graber Dealers,
In our ongoing commitment to support our partners with proactive and transparent communication, we would like to provide an update related to the ongoing developments related to North American tariffs.
Over the past eight weeks, we have continued to work diligently to lessen the impact by:
- Exploring alternative sourcing and making supply chain adjustments to reduce cost pressures.
- Evaluating pricing models to ensure we remain competitive while covering necessary costs.
- Engaging with trade experts and advisors to explore potential exemptions and strategic shifts.
- Working with key suppliers to identify cost-saving opportunities and improve efficiency.
While we have absorbed a portion of the increased costs, the impact is substantial, requiring us to implement temporary pricing adjustments to help mitigate the headwinds.
As a result of the currently enacted tariffs, Graber will be implementing a surcharge of 12% on all products, except soft (8%) and composite shutters (0%). These surcharges will be effective on all orders entered beginning Tuesday, 4/22. These surcharges will be displayed by line item on invoices.
We are committed to ongoing efforts to lessen the burden of tariffs. Our teams are:
- Continuing to optimize sourcing, manufacturing, and distribution strategies.
- Exploring further efficiencies and cost-reduction opportunities with suppliers.
- Working with industry experts to stay informed on potential policy changes and exemptions.
Thank you for your continued loyalty and support of the Graber brand.
