Breakthrough's Tariff Hub
Tariffs have long been a mechanism for shaping trade policies and protecting domestic industries. However, the reintroduction and escalation of tariffs under current U.S. administration policies are reshaping not only international trade, but also the transportation industry and supply chain strategies. Our tariff tracker will help transportation stakeholders monitor these changes and understand their far-reaching implications.
Active and pending tariff tracker
This tariff tracker provides an overview of the most influential tariffs currently in place and those under consideration for transportation leaders.
The impact of tariffs on transportation and supply chains
Tariffs are driving up costs, disrupting supply chains, and lowering consumer demand, posing major challenges for the transportation industry. Levies on materials like steel, aluminum, and semiconductors drive up manufacturing expenses, forcing fleet operators to delay purchases and increasing operational costs for shippers. At the same time, shifting trade policies and retaliatory tariffs are causing inefficiencies, bottlenecks, and higher energy prices, further straining supply chains. With reduced consumer demand and inflation concerns, transportation providers are facing slower freight volumes and potential labor impacts.
