Tariffs Disrupt Chinese Toy Manufacturer Huntar Amid US Trade Policy Shifts
Tariffs Disrupt Chinese Toy Manufacturer Huntar Amid US Trade Policy Shifts
9

Huntar, a US-owned educational toy manufacturer based in China’s Guangdong Province, faces severe operational strain following abrupt order cancellations from American retailers. CEO Jason Cheung slashed production by 66% and reduced headcount by a third after Walmart and Target halted shipments of plastic learning aids like Learning Resources Inc.’s Numberblocks.
The factory’s crisis underscores the razor-thin margins in toy manufacturing. Despite a temporary reduction of US tariffs to 30%, Chinese exporters remain vulnerable to demand shocks. Huntar’s predicament mirrors broader challenges for US-dependent suppliers navigating geopolitical trade currents.
