President Trump’s global tariffs on the grocery industry, focusing on Stew Leonard's, an eight-store grocery chain. The CEO, Stew Leonard Jr., discusses how tariffs on imported items like shrimp from India and pineapples from Costa Rica are beginning to affect costs as pre-tariff inventories are depleted, forcing the chain to consider raising consumer prices or switching suppliers, such as moving from Indian to Ecuadorian shrimp. While tariffs have prompted Stew Leonard's to onshore the sourcing of some products, like aluminum tins, major retailers like Walmart are also seeing cost increases due to the new duties. Economic data suggests that these tariffs are contributing to the fastest pace of grocery inflation in two years, prompting consumers to express concern over food costs and switch to less expensive products.
