Tariffs
The most recently arrived coffees have been subject to tariff. We are not adding any additional sums so whatever tariff was imposed on the coffee we purchase is simply passed forward. Any coffee or other product that began its transit from another country after April 9 is subject at this time to 10% tariff.
The scope and size of tariffs is a dynamic topic. A significant portion of the coffee and other products that we sell are imported. Extremely small quantities of coffee are produced in the US, primarily in Hawaii, as coffee requires tropical conditions, thus coffee must be imported. Many of the other items we sell, such as coffee roasters, coffeemakers, grinders and so forth are manufactured in countries such as China, South Korea, Japan as well as in Denmark and The Netherlands.
Unless we are the direct importer, as we sometimes are, we cannot identify the specific tariff amount. While we do not intend to margin or magnify any tariff we pay, we must pass them through to our customers as a product cost in order to maintain our business.
