The trade situation with the US is constantly evolving, and recent discussions about potential tariffs on goods from the United States have understandably raised concerns. In an effort to keep our customers (and potential customers alike) informed on what to expect, we will be posting updates online and reaching out to customers who are directly affected.

It’s important to note that the new tariffs do NOT apply to most of our products. In fact, only a very small and specific segment of our product line is affected. So that’s good news!

Current Situation: Monitoring Closely

As of today, we are not implementing any price changes related to these potential tariffs. We’re actively monitoring the situation, staying up-to-date on the latest developments, and carefully evaluating the potential impact on our product offerings. This is a dynamic situation, and details are subject to change, sometimes with very little notice.

Important Notice: Price Adjustments May Occur Without Prior Notice

One of the key challenges we face is the possibility of tariffs being implemented with minimal lead time. This could mean we may not have the typical 30-day window to notify you of price adjustments. Therefore, until we receive official confirmation and detailed information about the tariffs, please be aware that all prices are subject to change without notice.

Transparency is Key: Price Confirmation with Every Purchase Order

We understand that price fluctuations can be disruptive. To ensure complete transparency and prevent any surprises, we will confirm all prices with every purchase order. We strongly encourage you to connect with your sales representative to discuss any upcoming orders or potential projects. This will allow us to provide you with the most accurate and up-to-date pricing information.

Our Commitment: Minimizing the Impact

We recognize that these potential changes can create challenges for your business. We want to assure you that we are dedicated to minimizing the effects of any additional tariffs. Our team is exploring all available options to mitigate the impact on our customers. We are committed to working through this together.

Staying Informed: We’ll Keep You Updated

We value your partnership and understand the importance of clear communication. We will continue to keep you informed of any significant developments as they unfold. In the meantime, if you have any questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to reach out to your sales representative. We’re here to support you.

We appreciate your understanding and continued trust in Steeves Agencies. We’re confident that by working together, we can successfully navigate these evolving market conditions and continue to be successful!

Stay tuned!

In the meantime, here’s a list from the Government of Canada website showing the import codes and products that are currently being targeted.
