Charlotte Fabrics Tariff Update 5/19/2025

Thank you for understanding

Dear Valued Customer,


We have waited as long as possible before making a decision on how to handle the huge cost increases we have incurred due to tariffs on imports and tariffs on raw material that are used in USA-made fabric. In the meantime, we have been absorbing all cost increases. Unfortunately, this is simply not sustainable.


Most of our competitors are going to add line items with varying percent increases; sometimes without notification. We find that to be confusing, requires a calculator and not transparent. Our policy below is the easiest and most understandable in the industry.


Effective June 1st, we will be implementing a small surcharge of:

- Fabric or Vinyl:$2 / per yard

- Leather: 50 cents/ sq foot

- Closeouts, Lifeguard Treatment & Half Yard Samples: No surcharge


We do not take this surcharge lightly, but please know we are still absorbing a large portion of the tariffs. Price lists showing the surcharge are available on charlottefabrics.com and by clicking the button below. All invoices will show the total surcharge billed. Pricing online will reflect the surcharge.


We hope our great country will continue to negotiate beneficial trade agreements with all countries around the world. If tariffs decrease significantly, our surcharge will as well.



Thank you,


Elliot S. Gensler
