Trump administration opens investigation into foreign furniture trade

Posted on August 27, 2025   |  

The Trump administration launches a tariff investigation into imported furniture, potentially affecting a wide range of home products.

Uncertainty remains over whether new tariffs will be imposed in addition to existing duties.

The move comes as the furniture industry faces weak demand, with housing slowdown and inflation limiting consumer spending.

Domestic manufacturers are split—some benefit from tariffs, while others face higher costs for imported components.
