365 ITALIAN MUSIC + FurnitureMadeInItaly.com : One Mission. Two Icons. 

The furniture made in Italy and home design sector is on edge as the United States prepares to impose a 30% tariff on European imports as early as August 1. This potential escalation in transatlantic trade tensions could mark a tipping point for many in the European furniture and lighting industries, with Italian exporters especially vulnerable.

Industry leaders warn that such a steep duty would have far-reaching consequences, jeopardizing jobs, stalling growth, and placing unprecedented pressure on businesses that have, until now, resisted drastic reactions. Instead of relocating operations or cutting labor, many firms have attempted to pass costs onto U.S. consumers by raising prices. But with a 30% hike looming, that strategy may no longer be sustainable.

The tariffs stem from letters posted by former U.S. President Donald Trump on Truth Social on July 12, where he outlined a broader trade stance targeting both Mexico and the European Union. As the deadline approaches, hopes remain that the EU can negotiate a deal to prevent what could become a full-blown tariff war.

In response to these challenges, FurnitureMadeInItaly.com is stepping up to support both manufacturers and retailers of Italian furniture in the U.S. The project will play a crucial role in promoting the excellence of Italian craftsmanship, educating consumers about the value of authentic design, and highlighting the long-term benefits of investing in quality products. Through outreach, education, and visibility initiatives, the website aims to strengthen the position of Italian furniture in the U.S. market ...even in the face of economic headwinds.

As the industry confronts uncertainty, collaborative efforts like these may prove vital in sustaining demand and preserving Italy’s reputation for world-class design.
