New York: Adidas warned Tuesday that rising US tariffs will eventually increase the cost of its products in the American market. In a press release, CEO Bjorn Gulden said the company has already minimized exports from China to the US, but that the new tariff policies are having a broader impact. According to Anadolu Agency, Gulden expressed concerns over the general increase in US tariffs from all other countries of origin. He noted that Adidas currently cannot manufacture most of its products domestically, meaning higher import duties are likely to result in increased costs. "What is even worse for us is the general increase in US tariffs from all other countries of origin," Gulden stated. He emphasized that the uncertainty surrounding the negotiations between the US and different exporting countries adds to the complexity of the situation. The company is unsure of the final tariff rates, making it difficult to quantify the impact or predict how it might affect consumer demand. Gulden reiterated the chall enges posed by these rising tariffs and the potential implications for both the company and consumers. He underscored the unpredictability of the situation and the challenges it presents for strategic planning and cost management.
