The data is in! See what family owned businesses are saying about today’s challenges and opportunities.
Family Enterprise USA recently conducted a “Spot Poll” among family-owned businesses leaders on the Trump Administration’s tariff strategy.
Over 60 family-owned business leaders replied to the survey asking if they “are affected by tariffs?” The survey found 54% of family-owned business respondents said “Yes,” they were affected. On the other hand, 46% said “No.”
When asked the follow up question: “Are you concerned about tariffs affecting business?” the results were more dramatic. Over 64% said “Yes,” they were concerned about tariffs, while 36% said “No” they were not.
