ABOUT
TUNL Talks: The Tariff Era
About the event:
Our data shows a 46% drop in South African SME export volumes to the US since April 2025. The recent US tariff changes have hit small exporters hard — especially those who ship directly to customers abroad. Many are now facing delayed deliveries, unexpected costs, and tough choices around pricing and planning.
That’s why we’re launching TUNL Talks — a new discussion series for the TUNL merchant community. It’s a space to connect, share ideas, and tackle real challenges in global trade together.
Our first session, The Tariff Era, dives into how tariffs and destination charges are reshaping export strategies. This isn’t a lecture — it’s a practical, open conversation about what’s changing, what it means for your business, and how fellow exporters are adapting.
Who it’s for:
This session is for TUNL customers and South African small business owners who are already shipping globally or planning to start. Whether you’re a seasoned exporter or just testing international markets, you’ll find ideas, advice, and community here.
What to expect:
- Open, honest discussion — no jargon, no theory
- Real stories and insights from South African exporters
- Shared problem-solving and peer learning
- Simple, practical ways to manage tariffs and landed costs
- Connection with others building for global markets
