Let's Talk About...Tariffs

Tutu Artists Studio Podcast

Tariffs and duties can have a big impact on small businesses like tutu makers. On this week’s show we discuss potential impacts faced by increased costs of materials, availability of materials, and tariff fees going into and out of Canada and the US. There are a lot of unknowns, but Michelle, Casey and Emma discuss their strategies for what may lie ahead. What strategies are you using to plan for the upcoming costume season?
