Trump's new tariffs are expected to increase grocery prices in the US. Supermarket executives and food industry experts predict price hikes on imported goods like seafood, coffee, and fruit within weeks, impacting lower-income families the most.

While Mexico and Canada are exempt due to USMCA, the overall impact on already rising grocery costs will further strain consumer budgets, leading to reduced spending and a shift towards cheaper store brands.
