The China and US have reached an agreement to slash tariffs on May 12. Both sides will each lower tariffs by 115%, while retaining an additional 10% tariff for 90 days.

 

The China-US deal temporarily lowering tariffs comes as a relief for Chinese exporters. As orders for the US market are reactivated, the entire foreign trade industry chain—from production to shipping—seems to be coming alive, bustling with renewed vitality.

 

Chinese companies engaged in export services, beauty and personal care packaging, medical devices, and consumer goods are accelerating the delivery of US market orders that had been postponed due to client shipping halts.

 

Some businesses proactively implemented market diversification strategies during the high-tariff period, expanding into European and domestic markets for risk management. They are now rapidly restoring their exports to the US, with many anticipating significant growth in US market order volume this year.

On the morning of May 14, Saame Tools (Shanghai) Import & Export Co., Ltd. received notifications from several US clients allowing shipments to resume. The company specializes in the import and export of hardware tools.

 

A company representative said that previously suspended orders have now been approved for shipment, and there is a requirement to expedite the delivery of current orders. The company is urging factories to fulfill these orders, expecting to ship a batch of US orders by early June. “Some clients plan to increase their orders to take advantage of the window period,” the representative noted in a media report.

 

In Shenzhen, Guangdong Province, many companies have reached out to their US clients to discuss the resumption of orders.

 

Topfeelpack Co., Ltd., which provides comprehensive solutions for cosmetic packaging, told the media that US clients have requested expedited shipping due to concerns about low inventory. Seven projects that were previously on hold because of US tariffs are expected to restart, and the company has notified factories to accelerate delivery.

 

Shenzhen MedRena Biotech Co., Ltd., a medical device company specializing in critical care anesthesia and infusion equipment, stated in a media interview that orders from several major US clients have resumed, and they are urging expedited shipments. “The tariffs will be jointly borne by us and the US clients, and the current tariff levels are within an acceptable range for both parties,” the general manager said.

 

The head of an export-oriented appliance manufacturer mentioned in a media interview, “Orders have been coming in like snowflakes since May 13. Our factory is operating three shifts and is still overwhelmed.”

 

During this period in previous years, the average daily order volume for this company was about US$200,000, but it has now surged to over US$600,000. Due to concerns about potential policy changes, US clients are requesting expedited shipments and are willing to pay higher logistics costs.

 

China's container orders to the US increased by 300%

 

As China and the US slash tariffs, a “rush to ship” has emerged, leading to a peak in foreign trade logistics for shipments to the US. Previously delayed orders are now being consolidated for shipment, resulting in a significant rebound in shipping slot bookings and rising freight rates. Currently, the freight rate for a 40-foot container on the East US route has increased to US$4,000-$4,200.

 

According to a report from Reuters, the Vizion global shipping order tracking system recorded a nearly 300% surge in container bookings from China to the US following progress in high-level economic talks between the two countries.

 

Other media also reported that shipping slots from Shanghai to the US at the end of May are nearing full capacity. Additionally, over the past two weeks, scheduling plans at Yantian Port in Shenzhen have been adjusted to accommodate the peak in shipments.
