Dear Napa Customers,

Thank you for your continued partnership and, for those of you who made it to High Point Market last week making this season a great success — we truly value the opportunity to connect and collaborate with you in person.

As we continue navigating the current tariff landscape, we want to share an important update:

Napa will be delaying the effective date of our previously announced tariff surcharge to 
June 1, 2025. This change reflects our commitment to fairness and transparency as we manage ongoing uncertainty around evolving government policy.

In the meantime, we are actively working to release and ship all possible orders ahead of the original May 12th implementation date. Orders received and shipped prior to June 1st will not be subject to the tariff surcharge, so we encourage you to plan and place orders accordingly.

We are also pleased to let you know that we have pre-tariff inventory available now at current pricing. You may add to existing in-house orders for in-stock items only that are ready to ship immediately.

Beginning June 1, 2025, the tariff surcharge will be applied as follows:

• All New Orders will receive a 16.0% tariff surcharge
• Back-ordered items placed before June 1 will receive a reduced surcharge of 8%
• Future-dated orders for receipt after June 1 will also receive a reduced surcharge of 8%

While the impact of tariffs is unavoidable, we continue to absorb a significant portion of the increased costs and are expanding our artisan network in less-affected regions to minimize disruption. We remain committed to maintaining the quality, value, and service you’ve come to expect from Napa.

Thank you again for your trust and partnership. Please don’t hesitate to contact your Napa Sales Representative with any questions or needs.

With sincere appreciation,

Michelle Gee
President, Napa Home & Garden

Starting May 5th, Noir will apply a TEMPORARY 12% surcharge to all orders during this tariff situation. Noir is closely monitoring all tariffs that apply to them and will immediately make appropriate adjustments to the surcharge.

Thank you for your support.

Dear valued customer,
 
We wanted to follow up with an important update regarding the recent tariff changes and how they may affect our pricing. As part of our ongoing response to the evolving trade environment, we will implement a price adjustment on June 9, 2025.
 
As mentioned in our previous communication, the U.S. government introduced a new round of “reciprocal” tariffs on April 2, which officially went into effect on April 5. These tariffs, in addition to those implemented back in March, have impacted much of the global import landscape.
 
We are actively working to mitigate the impact of these changes by absorbing a portion of the additional costs and adjusting our production strategies.  However, some price adjustments are necessary. Updated pricing details will be available after May 9, 2025. For your convenience, digital versions of these resources will be accessible on our website at:
 
www.TopKnobs.com
www.AtlasHomewares.com
 
We recognize this is a dynamic situation, and tariff rates may continue to fluctuate. If rates decrease or are lifted in countries where our products are manufactured, we will revise our pricing to reflect those changes. Likewise, if additional increases occur, we will respond accordingly and keep you informed every step of the way.
 
Should you require further information or have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact your local sales representative or our dedicated customer service team at CustomerService@TopKnobs.com.
 
We truly appreciate your continued support and partnership as we navigate these changes together.
 
Warm regards,
Greg Gottlieb, CEO

Dear Texture Customer,
 

As many of you are aware, the recent introduction of tariffs on all imported products entering the U.S. has raised concerns about pricing. To clarify, all imports into the US have been subject to a minimum 10% tariff surcharge since April 5, 2025. Tariffs are determined by the country of origin and are paid by the importer. #@#_WA_-_CURSOR_-_POINT_#@# The vast majority of our products originate from Europe, India and Turkey. Products from China consist of a minimal percentage (~6%) of our product offering.   

Given the volatile nature of ongoing tariff policies, we have chosen not to adjust any pricing at this time. Instead, we will introduce a temporary "Tariff Surcharge” line item on our orders, similar to how we handle a charge for freight. This approach allows us to remain flexible and adjust or remove the surcharge as trade policies evolve.
The following Tariff Surcharges will be implemented May 1, 2025:

• Tier 1: 5% Tariff Surcharge on all products originating from all countries except China.
• Tier 2: 35% Tariff Surcharge on all products originating from China. While the current tariff from China stands at 145%, Texture has chosen to share some of this cost temporarily.

  **A list of items subject to  35%  tariff surcharge are available to view here.**
 
On all orders either in house or received by April 30th, there will be no tariff surcharge. We believe this is a fair approach and hope this will allow you sufficient time to prepare and share this update with your customers.

We greatly value your business and want to reassure you that we are here to support you and are always available to answer your questions. 

Dear Client, At Romo we believe communication is key in building strong and lasting client relationships, particularly when external circumstances affect our operations.  As many of you are aware, the recent introduction of tariffs on all foreign products entering the U.S. has raised some concerns about pricing. We want to share how Romo is addressing this development and what it means for you. To clarify, all imports into the US have been subject to a minimum 10% tariff surcharge since April 5, 2025. Tariffs are determined by the country of origin of an individual product, not by our status as a British company. The vast majority of our products originate from mainland Europe, earmarked for a 20% tariff surcharge initially, but currently paused for 90 days. Given the volatile nature of these tariff policies, we have chosen not to adjust any pricing at this time. Instead, we will introduce a 5% “Tariff Surcharge” based on the total value of the order, which will show as a single line item, similar to how we handle a charge for freight. This approach allows us to remain flexible and adjust or remove the surcharge as policies evolve.  This surcharge of 5% will go into effect on Monday, April 28. All existing orders, reserves and CFA’s placed prior to April 28, will be honored without adding the surcharge. We believe this is a fair approach and hope this will allow you sufficient time to prepare and share this update with your clients. If global tariff percentages prove to be much higher from certain countries to another, we may need to implement a different structure moving forward.  We greatly value your business and want to reassure you that this measure in no way diminishes our ongoing commitment to delivering the highest level of service.    Warm regards,

Frederic Henry CEO, Romo Inc.
