Desk of Ladyada - Tariff Talk! ASK AWAY! 📦🌎💸

We're doing the show tonight or Tues, so much is going on. Lots more questions came in too! Post yours before we go live…

This week was not a big week for engineering because we're neck-deep in tariff management! We had a video on Wednesday about the first round of tariffs announced—they have since been ratcheted up to 20% + 125% = 145% minimum on products from China and Hong Kong. "Retaliatory" tariffs on products from other countries have been paused, but there's still a 10% global tariff.

Then on Friday, it looks like some HTS codes

and see how they might apply to the kinds of stuff we use to do our electronics engineering.

The Great Search - How to Source Tariffed & Non-Tariffed Items on DigiKey

https://www.digikey.com/short/2nb7nzb3

Since this is the topic of the day, we'll be looking at how to purchase an item from DigiKey with tariffs in mind. DigiKey is a free trade zone, which means that if you're not in the USA, you will not have to pay additional tariffs on goods that are re-exported. However, for USA destinations, the new tariffs can add a significant cost if the component has its last manufacturing step in China.

Let's use the example of a simple I2C-controlled temperature sensor to see how our sourcing decisions may be impacted by tariffs.

Choosing the Right Shipping Container in India

Not everything that travels moves the same way.

Some things need cold. Some need space. Some need strength. Some need silence.

A reefer container keeps its promises. Holding the cold steady, protecting medicines, food, and life itself as they cross borders without changing who they are.

An open top container knows when to step aside. It lifts its roof so tall machines can breathe, so nothing has to bend to fit.

A flat rack doesn’t build walls. It carries weight without judgment— transformers, turbines, pieces of progress moving slowly and carefully.

A platform container is pure strength. No sides. No limits. Just balance and trust for cargo that refuses to be small.

An ISO tank moves liquids with respect. Sealed. Silent. Clean. Nothing spills. Nothing is wasted. Everything arrives as it should.

Choosing the right container is not about steel. It’s about understanding what the cargo needs to arrive whole.

And in a world of growing trade, FTWZs, cold chains, and long journeys— this understanding is everything.

F R E E T R A D E Z O N E (Meaning, Importance, benefits) #FreeTradeZone is a commercial zone/centre where people trade without paying Tax. A system they are using in Dubai. It's attracting a lot of investors and creating Job opportunities for people in #Dubai This same thing will happen in the Lekki Free Trade Zone in #IbejuLekki– There will be massive influx of Investors (local and foreign). Lots of jobs will be created. There will be Population growth/increase in that region. And thus, increase/high demand for Real Estate (lands, buildings/accommodations, rents, hotels, relaxation centres, #resortcentres, shopping malls, banking halls, etc...) And from elementary knowledge of #Economics, when demand is high, the price hikes. And property #investors begin to rake in (their) gains/returns on their investment at a high level in the form of rents, lease or resale of their lands, getting paid for offering #hospitality services, etc. Foresight it is! WHY then will you not invest in Ibeju Lekki now, to position yourself ahead of the boom? We have a couple of #EstateLands around the Lekki Free Trade Zone currently selling.
