The Reshoring Initiative’s Harry Moser on how, when and why US companies are moving production back to America.
Suddenly, after decades of watching manufacturing jobs move to Asia, reshoring is front and center in the media. The Trump Administration’s tariff policy, preceded by Biden Administration legislation like the CHIPS Act, have brought the issue of manufacturing in America to the forefront, but now that it’s happening, and quickly, the hard work really begins.
First COVID, and now tariffs have forced American manufacturing to rely on supply chains that are increasingly domestic, supply chains which must in many cases be built or rebuilt from scratch.
Harry Moser, President of the Reshoring Initiative, recently published a report that outlines the attitude of American manufacturers toward reshoring and it reveals interesting insights into their attitudes toward the new paradigm.
He joined engineering.com’s Jim Anderton on this episode of the Industry & Trends Podcast.
