What Is a Trade Strategy
(And Why Should You Care?)

A trade strategy is your cheat sheet for staying profitable when global chaos hits. It’s how you decide what to source, where to buy, how to price, and how to pivot—before you’re forced to.

It’s not just for the big guys with warehouses and CFOs. If you’re importing products, relying on overseas suppliers, or pricing based on shifting costs, you already have a trade problem. What you need now… is a trade plan.

We help you build one.

FAQs for Retailers Navigating Tariffs

Think of it as your business’s game plan when the rules change—what to do, what to adjust, and how to stay profitable when sourcing, shipping, or costs shift. It’s part pricing plan, part supply chain support, part survival guide.

Not at all. While tariffs might kick things off, we also look at your supplier risk, contract terms, pricing models, sourcing strategies, and what to do before problems escalate.

If your products, packaging, or raw materials come from someone who does—you’re still affected. Tariffs and global trade shifts ripple through the supply chain. We help you understand where the risk actually hits.

Absolutely. That’s why we created the Tariff Survival Kit and our Trade Planning Trello Board. But if you want eyes on your numbers, suppliers, or contracts—we’re here to help.

Sanctions = government-imposed restrictions (usually political—think “you can’t trade with them”).
Duties = general taxes on imports or exports.
Tariffs = a type of duty, usually aimed at protecting local industries by taxing foreign goods.

You do. Or your importer does—and they pass it straight to you.
Tariffs are charged at the border when goods enter a country. Whoever is listed as the “importer of record” gets hit first… but guess who eats that cost in the end? Yep. You—or your customers.

Usually before your goods are released by customs.
You’ll either pay them directly (if you’re importing) or they’re bundled into your invoice if you use a freight forwarder or customs broker. If you didn’t see the fee, you probably didn’t read the fine print—or it’s hiding in “landed cost.”

Some countries charge export duties or fees to protect local resources or regulate supply. So yes, it’s possible to get charged by the country sending the goods AND the one receiving them. Welcome to Global Trade.
