Navigating Tariff Costs: HOW FCB2B SUPPORTS FLOORING RETAILERS
T he flooring industry continues to face challenges due to shifting global trade policies, including tariffs on imported goods. These tariffs have led to fluctuations in product costs, putting pressure on retailers to stay ahead of price increases. The need for accurate, real-time data has never been greater, and FCB2B is stepping up to help retailers better anticipate and manage these changes. One of the most significant recent updates to the FCB2B 832 Price Catalog standard is the inclusion of the country of origin for products sold by flooring suppliers. This enhancement provides retailers with a crucial piece of information that can help them anticipate potential tariff-related cost increases before they take effect.
