Reference Message Network reported on April 16 according to the report of the website of Russia's Satellite News Agency on April 16. The agency reported that based on U.S. official data analysis, the U.S. imposition of tariffs on Chinese imports will result in shortages of umbrellas, hairdressing supplies, accessories, wigs, and false eyelashes for the country.
The report stated that in 2024, 96% of umbrellas used in the U.S. will be imported from China, and 85% of umbrella accessories are also imported from China. Although the U.S. has its own umbrella manufacturers, they cannot meet the demand gap even if import is completely stopped - the U.S. only exported $36 million worth of umbrellas, while the import amount reached $490 million.
The situation with combs, curling irons, and hair accessories is similar: among the $409 million worth of imported goods, China accounted for $370 million, exceeding 90%. American companies also purchase a large number of accessories produced in China - accounting for two-thirds of the total accessory imports.
It was reported that last year, half of the watch straps, bracelets, ties, scarves, gloves, mittens, stockings, socks, and rubber footwear in the U.S. were imported from China.
