At time of press, the Supreme Court’s decision on the legality of tariffs under Trump 2.0 is forthcoming and tariffs are still in effect.
This session will explore how tariffs, trade wars, and immigration shifts are presently impacting global supply chain, sourcing, pricing, and labor for the food industry. The speakers will also offer insights into how a possible Supreme Court decision invalidating tariffs would impact the food industry.
- Understanding the impact of tariffs on the food industry and how they are disrupting global supply chains
- Examining the fallout of current trade wars on sourcing strategies, ingredients, and product pricing
- Exploring the economic consequences and business impact to the food industry in the event of a Supreme Court ruling that the Trump tariffs are invalid
- Exploring new workforce considerations in light of the Trump Administration’s immigration polices
- Analyzing the economic fallout of these new immigration policies on the food industry and consumers
