Event PresentationFreeze, Flight or Fight? How Retailers Can Strategically Navigate Tariff Turmoil John Carroll, Interim Head of Advisory April 10, 2025 Reasons to ReadTariff changes are creating real challenges for retailers across categories—but with the right strategy, businesses can stay ahead rather than fall behind.
