  • American Christmas Trees Face Tariff Hurdles

    01:43|
    As the holiday season wraps up, the question of when to pack away Christmas decorations lingers.

However, bringing production back to the US is challenging due to high labor costs and price sensitivity. Some companies shifted to countries like Cambodia, but high tariffs still impacted sales. Despite higher costs, fake trees remain popular for convenience, with eighty percent coming pre-lit. This holiday season might feel less merry for some due to increased prices.
