In fact, our monthly survey data found that <strong>69% of businesses have had to change their company&rsquo;s operations<\/strong> in response to Trump&rsquo;s tariffs.<\/p>\n<p>Suffice to say, the future of the logistics industry remains a complete mystery considering the speed with which these tariffs change the landscape in an instant.
