Trump's China tariffs could empty stores shelves, CEOs warn

Prices could rise for consumers across the nation as early as this summer, warns an ASU supply chain expert.

In this story aired May 5, 2025, on Arizona Horizon:

The number of ships coming into the ports of LA and Long Beach has dropped by 35%. It's not only that, but the drop in shipment volume: The number of products a container holds has also dropped by about 20-25%. So it's not only the number of ships coming in that is reduced, but the amount of product coming in has also reduced.
