Steve Madden Accelerates Shift in Production Out of China After Trump’s Election Victory

Steve Madden announced Thursday that it is accelerating efforts to shift production out of China in response to anticipated tariffs from President-elect Donald Trump once he assumes office, according to Bloomberg.

During a company earnings call, the New York-based retailer revealed it now plans to cut its reliance on Chinese manufacturing by 40% over the next year, up from an earlier target of just 10%.
