Dear Valued Customer,

We sincerely thank you for your continued support and partnership. The letters, emails, meetings, and advocacy many of you have undertaken to raise awareness about these tariffs have made a real difference. While challenges remain, progress is being made, and we remain hopeful that continued dialogue will help shape fairer trade policies ahead.

The U.S. Department of Commerce has recently enacted Section 232 furniture-specific tariffs, impacting imported furniture across most major sourcing countries. Many are now subject to 25% tariffs, while China (approximately 80%) and India (50%) face even higher rates.

Our team has worked closely with our manufacturing partners to absorb as much of these increases as possible. However, to maintain our quality, service, and consistency, Alder & Tweed will implement a 5% surcharge on all furniture orders beginning November 1, 2025.

Orders placed before November 1 will be honored at current pricing.

Orders placed after November 1 will include the 5% surcharge, shown as a line item.

This minimal surcharge does not cover the full cost of the new tariffs. It is intended to help ease the impact on our partners and consumers, and it will adjust—up or down—in line with future trade policy changes.

Our goal remains unchanged: to provide exceptional design and craftsmanship at accessible prices. Thank you for standing with us through this evolving time and for being a valued part of the Alder & Tweed family.

With appreciation,

Ryan Humphrey
Co-Founder
