Trump tariffs are starting to be felt by factory operators in China, according to one entrepreneur who makes artificial leather for shoes, there are requests from his customers for him to lower prices.
Most of them are involved in selling shoes to the United States (US).
According to him, if the situation worsens, he may have to change his business and focus on selling in China.
Several companies have already moved their factories to other countries to avoid the tariffs imposed by Trump.
Meanwhile, clothing factories in Guangzhou remain active, supplying low-cost brands such as Shein and Temu.
This is driven by tax exemptions on small-sized goods.
Despite rumors that the exemptions will change, many believe that the demand for low-priced goods will always be there.
