Q1: Why are there tariffs on Adesso products? 

A1: Our products are subject to a “reciprocal” 10% tariff because our manufacturing facilities are located in Cambodia and Vietnam. These tariffs were implemented as part of broader trade policies aimed at regulating imports from specific countries. 

Q2: How do these tariffs affect the price of Adesso products?  

A2: The 10% tariff does indeed increase our manufacturing costs; however, we have not raised our prices as a result. We are committed to absorbing these additional costs while continuing to maintain our high standards of quality and service. Value is always a top priority at Adesso.

Q3: Are there plans to adjust the pricing to accommodate the tariffs? 

A3: We continuously evaluate our pricing strategies to remain competitive while also managing the effects of the tariffs. If price adjustments are necessary, we will communicate these changes transparently to our customers. Value is always a top priority at Adesso.

Q4: How do you ensure product quality despite the impact of tariffs?

A4: We maintain rigorous quality control processes at our factories in Cambodia and Vietnam to ensure that every product meets our high standards.  These new locations are operated by the same companies we have been working with for over 20 years,  so you can expect the same Adesso high quality standards that you are accustomed to.

Q5: Will these tariffs impact shipping times or availability of your products?  

A5: While we strive to maintain our usual shipping times, tariffs can sometimes cause changes in logistics and supply chain operations. We are working closely with our partners to minimize any delays and ensure timely delivery of our products.

Q6: How can customers provide feedback regarding tariffs and product pricing?  

A6: We encourage our customers to reach out with any feedback or concerns regarding pricing or tariffs. Your input is valuable in helping us navigate these challenges, and we are always here to listen and assist.

Q7: What steps is your company taking to remain competitive in light of the tariffs?  

A7: We are implementing cost-saving measures, optimizing our supply chain, and exploring new design trends while enhancing customer service and product innovation to deliver the best value. Anticipating tariff impacts on Chinese goods, we began exiting China over two years ago, allowing us to remain competitive with high-value products in lower tariff regions.

Q8: Are there any tariff exemptions or ways to reduce the tariff burden? 

A8: Currently, Adesso products do not qualify for exemptions under existing tariff regulations. However, we continue to monitor changes in trade policies and will pursue any opportunities to minimize tariff costs as they arise.

Q9: How do I stay updated on changes to pricing or tariffs affecting Adesso products? 

A9: We recommend subscribing to our newsletter or following us on social media to stay informed about any updates regarding pricing, tariffs, and new product releases. We value transparency and will keep our customers informed every step of the way.
