How Chivari Is Helping You Navigate Tariff Turbulence

In an ideal world, you’d never have to worry about the impact of global trade policies on your business. However, as we have seen, today’s market is anything but predictable. The ongoing shifts in tariffs has impacted all of us, but especially those reliant on products from overseas.

At Chivari, we want to take a moment to acknowledge these challenges and, more importantly, to reassure you that we are on your side.

The Realities of a Shifting Tariff Landscape

Tariffs are no longer just a line item on an invoice, they’ve become a key factor in inventory management, purchasing decisions, and pricing stability. With rates rising and falling at unpredictable intervals, we have seen dramatic ripple effects across the entire supply chain. Businesses everywhere are dealing with delays in shipping, inconsistent inventory levels, and unforeseen cost increases.

Even with the recently announced tariff pause, the current tariff is still higher than it was at the beginning of the year. Moreover, the rapid tariff increase effectively shut down almost all shipping from China. There is a significant backlog, and it while take time for the excesses to work themselves through the system.

How Chivari Has Taken Action for You

We recognized early on that this environment demanded a proactive response. That’s why Chivari took decisive steps to get ahead of the curve, not just for our own business, but to protect yours.

We made the strategic decision to invest in excess inventory ahead of the announced tariff hikes. While this required substantial foresight and financial commitment, we believed it was the right move to shield our clients from price spikes and supply shortages.

Thanks to this preparation, we've been able to normalize pricing while tariffs increased 700%. Our warehouse network remains strong, our stock levels are healthy, and our commitment to providing you with reliable, high-quality furnishings remains as solid as ever.

As part of our ongoing effort to support our customers during this uncertain period, we we're proud to introduce our Tariff Buster Specials, a curated selection of in-stock, high-demand products available at specially reduced pricing.

These specials are more than just deals; they are part of our broader mission to help your business stay resilient and profitable. Whether you need Banquet Chairs, stackable seating, for folding resin, our Tariff Buster offerings are updated regularly to reflect our inventory strength and your most pressing needs.

Looking Ahead with Confidence

While the current tariff environment is paused for 90 days, that can change if trade talks break down. Rest assured that Chivari will continue to monitor developments closely and respond in ways that prioritize your success. Whether that means adjusting our sourcing strategies, enhancing our logistics operations, or continuing to offer promotional pricing, we are fully committed to doing what’s right for you.

Our promise is simple: we will always act in the best interests of our clients. Your trust and partnership mean everything to us, and we're proud to stand with you—through every fluctuation, every challenge, and every success.
