In this episode, we explore how some manufacturers and distributors are taking an unexpected stand in today’s volatile economy—they’re absorbing tariff costs instead of passing them on to their customers. Featuring the example of SMC Corporation and their distribution partner Automation Distribution, we unpack why this strategy isn’t just smart business—it’s a statement of loyalty. If you're in manufacturing, automation, or supply chain management, this episode will reshape how you evaluate your supplier relationships and define true partnership.

🎧 Listen in to discover how staying profitable starts with picking the right people to stand beside you when it counts most.
