US tariff policy uncertainties have created challenges and opportunities for international manufacturers. Companies in countries with lower reciprocal tariffs enjoy a competitive edge. Sercomm, a networking equipment manufacturer, has found its production strategy advantageous amid the tariff volatility. The company, which concentrates approximately 60% of its production in the Philippines for the North American market, benefits from the Philippines’ relatively lower tariff rate of 17%, compared to the potential 46% rate for Vietnam.
