Closer Look with Rose Scott

Consequences of Trump’s Tariffs on Georgia Small Businesses


Listen Later

According to a BDO survey of businesses in the Southeastern United States, 41% say trade and tariff policy is their #1 concern for the next 12 months. Plus, as Atlanta Federal Reserve President Raphael Bostic recently shared on “Closer Look,” consumer spending has declined, and small businesses are being hit hardest by inflationary pressures. The U.S. Supreme Court is now considering whether to allow President Trump to continue imposing tariffs on nations around the world. This is after some companies reveal they’ve been subjected to tariffs as high as 170%. On today’s “Closer Look with Rose Scott,” we get analysis on the impact of tariffs from a roundtable of experts. Then, Atlanta area small businesses discuss the rising costs they’re facing and their concerns for the future. We hear from the owners of Garage Door Studio and Anna Griffin, Inc., plus the CEO of Just for Teens.

Guests Include:

John Haber, Chief Strategy Officer at Transportation Insight Holding Company

Finance Prof. Thomas More Smith, Emory University’s Goizueta Business School

David Greaves, Tax Market Leader at BDO in Atlanta

Brian Reynolds, CEO of Just for Teens

Jen Singh & Rachel Herzog, Co-Owners of Garage Door Studio in Avondale Estates

Anna Griffin, Owner of Anna Griffin, Inc.
