Trump says details coming on furniture tariffs
Sep 29, 2025 7:11 AM

WASHINGTON, Sept 29 (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald

Trump on Monday said details were forthcoming on tariffs for

furniture imports, after announcing levies of up to 50% on such

goods last week.

"I will be imposing substantial Tariffs on any Country that

does not make its furniture in the United States. Details to

follow," Trump said in a social media post, noting lost business

in North Carolina.

Trump announced a 50% tariff on imported kitchen cabinets

and vanities, along with a 30% levy on upholstered furniture,

which are set to take effect on October 1.

The import duties will make it more challenging for

companies to hold down prices, while executives in the industry

have raised concerns over the lack of manufacturing capacity in

the United States, as the country relies heavily on imports from

China, Mexico and Vietnam.

Chief executives at Williams-Sonoma ( WSM ) and RH, formerly

known as Restoration Hardware, have both raised concerns about

higher tariffs in recent earnings calls.

Prices for everything from clothes to TVs have gone up in

recent months as manufacturers and retailers struggle with the

ever-changing tariff environment while also trying to offset

rising commodity and supply-chain costs.
