The Trump administration's new tariffs on imports will directly affect grocery prices, particularly in the produce and seafood sections. Starting Saturday, everyday items like bananas and grapes from Guatemala and Peru will see a 10% price increase due to tariffs. The situation worsens for shrimp from Vietnam, facing a 46% tariff. Following this, staples like sugar and coffee are likely to become even more expensive. With rising costs, grocery stores are adapting by expanding private-label options. However, the high prices for specialty coffee could increase by as much as 35%.
Grocery shoppers will soon feel the impact of the new tariffs, particularly on fast-moving items in the produce aisle, leading to small price increases.
Prices for imports from Guatemala and Peru will see a 10% tariff increase, potentially raising everyday food costs for essential items like bananas and grapes.
The seafood counter could face even steeper price hikes, with shrimp imports from Vietnam subject to a staggering 46% tariff.
With historic coffee prices already high, the impact of tariffs is expected to raise prices further, with specialty coffee beans potentially increasing by 10% to 35%.
