DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The "2025 USA Tariffs and Their Effect on E-Commerce, Payments, and Cross-Border Trade" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

Global Trade Impact: Tariffs Disrupt E-Commerce and Manufacturing

The 2025 U.S. tariff policies have created significant challenges for global E-Commerce and manufacturing, increasing operational costs and compliance issues. Chinese cross-border sellers are struggling with rising logistics costs, leading some to resort to risky practices like mislabeling shipments. U.S. ports, are experiencing declining cargo volumes, threatening regional economic stability.

Adapting to Change: E-Commerce Moves to Lower-Tariff Regions

To mitigate rising costs, many E-Commerce businesses are shifting production to regions like Vietnam and Mexico, where tariffs are lower. At the same time, companies are investing in AI to enhance efficiencies in pricing, inventory, and demand forecasting. However, payment firms and fintech companies are also feeling the strain, as these cost pressures challenge their profitability and force a reevaluation of business strategies.

Consumer Shifts: U.S. Shoppers Embrace Chinese E-Commerce Platforms

As domestic prices rise, U.S. consumers are increasingly turning to Chinese platforms like Taobao, now among the top five most downloaded shopping apps in the U.S. In response, major retailers such as Amazon and Shein are adjusting their sourcing and fulfillment strategies, while brands like Anker are raising prices. Despite the tariff pressures, B2C E-Commerce sales in the U.S. are still expected to reach USD 1.3 trillion, with businesses working to maintain customer loyalty while controlling costs.
