Joe & Seph’sThe United Kingdom has exported a value of £ 60 billion in the United States, one of the most important markets for the British enterprises this year.
After the President Donald Trump announced a 10% tariff for almost all England, we talked to businesses to learn what they wanted to do from England’s largest exporters.
Food and drink: ‘We have received less orders than normal’
The food and beverage industry of the Britain is exports several billion pounds worth of goods for several billion pounds each year, smoking salmon, scotch whiskey and artist cheeses are pleased with the taste of Americans for specialist products.
Luxury Popcorn manufacturer Joe & Seph’s co-founder, co-founder and chief executor Adam Sopher and CEO Adam Sopher and Cooker, said it simply affects the work of the audience of tariffs.
US retailers generally perform their orders for Christmas in the early years, but they ordered less than normal because they expect retailers.
Joe & Seph’s, £ 8 million last year came from £ 8 million, 2% -3% from the United States. “So not great,” says Mr. Sopher. “But the United States is the world’s largest popcorn market, so we plan to come from there.”
As a result, it now says he intends to increase the export of the Middle East and Asia.
However, 10% were not as bad as the tariff waiting, and when the US insides reached American ports, they must pay a 5.8% tariff to the goods of Joe & Seph.
“So what happened, we will go from 5.8% to 10%, as of 5% to 10%,” Mr. Sopher. The European Union is low in new US tariffs in other countries such as 20% of taxes.
“Unfortunately, it can be a good thing,” he says. “These retailers, who are caused by Europe, are now ‘we will get more from the UK.”
Chemicals: ‘We hope to have an opportunity’
Organic chemicals for something that is not visible to the naked eye is a great US export for UK, which is about £ 3 billion last year.
They are used in a massive area of meals to make a makeup from food and agriculture.
If the Robinsons brothers, rather than a scary of the US tariff, can help Western Bromwich-based organic chemicals to be cheaper than American foreign competitors.
CEO Hanrahan says: “We gave the United States more, but China and India demolished us for a very low price.”
Under Trump’s new regime, the products of China’s products are taxed in 27%, while taxes are taxed in 34%. Robinsons Brothers are taxed in 6% when our chemicals reached the United States
Mr. Hanrahan says that the new US company’s new 10% tariff in the United States will pay an additional 4% or only 16% of American customers in the United States.
“In both cases, it will see this less than Chinese or India,” he says. “So I really hope and I see an opportunity for us in an area here.”
Since January, the company received more surveys from the United States, including two clients Robinsons brothers Robinsons who lost their brothers.
Currently, the Robinsons brothers come between 1.5% and 2% of the total sales, which reached £ 24 million last year – comes from America.
It says “It doesn’t look much” Hanrahan, but they are high margin products.
Of course, there are concerns that opponent countries in other markets in the United States, such as local prices, such as local prices.
Mr Hanrahan says: “I hope that the UK government is preparing for it and puts something to reduce any form of any form of embracing any product in the UK and the EU.”
Plane: ‘It’s as clear as mud’
Sebastian downExport to the United States to the United States to the United States shows the United States in 2024, £ 2.2 billion and official figures.
DPS designs contribute to the industry – a small but important part. The forest of the dean-based firm is metal molds used to create plastic sections of aircraft seats.
The US is the largest growth market in DPS. Sales worth £ 150,000 comes directly from the United States for only £ 3 million.
The company’s managing director Sebastian, Sebastian says that the company will negotiate with the customers “we can share in pain” – new 10% tariffs, deciphered what they applied.
“The amount of detail is the paper thin,” he said.
DPS designs have already to combat the white house around the tariffs, after announcing 25% trading tariffs in steel and aluminum imports. The company uses aluminum to make their molds.
“There was no one in question, so I was able to go to any website that the United States, mainly, he was able to look at many detail,” he said.
As a result, aluminum tariff does not apply to his work. However, new 10% tariff criteria are not clear. For example, does it apply to parts or only finished articles that make up a product?
“It’s as clear as mud” said MR down.
Vehicles: ‘We must raise prices’
DisappointedThe US market for England is a great result for the economy of the United States. Last year, Britain exported 9 billion pounds to America.
The sector has already spread to 25% of the Trump’s previous US tariff and light vehicles.
Mike Hawes, the Executive Director of MotorAfts and Merchants, “These tariff expenses cannot be absorbed by manufacturers and thus hit us consumers with additional costs and reduced English brands.”
With the announcement of Trump, almost all England imports with the announcement of 10% US tax taxes, the network will cover the electric motorcycle manufacturer Magingin’s approval.
Coventry co-founder and counterpart Jones-Jones-Jones says sales from the United States says “never developed.” Last month, for example, 68% of sales come from America, but 40% of the United States is 40% of the circulation of about 6 million.
Mr. Inglis-Jones says that the United States has helped reflect a less optimistic economic outlook in other major markets such as Britain, France and Germany.
“There is more lump sum in the United States, and therefore a little more expensive English-built electric motorcycle is a little more arbitrary than an optional purchase, Americans can spend more of this money.”
He says he recently did not like a vacant act before the tariffs, but in advance for the increase in the value of the work in the States.
Will the company now raise prices?
“We have not reached this day,” said Mr. Inglis-Jones. “I think a young house (electric vehicle) is more likely to make sure that growth and price is suitable for the US client.
“If we do not know the stomach, we must put prices again.”
