This has triggered global market concerns and potential chain reactions for commodities such as orange juice, beef, coffee, sugar, and seafood. These trade measures are sounding alarms in export-dependent industries and among US importers, with market participants indicating that the impact could be widespread. Brazil will respond to the newly announced US export tariffs with reciprocal measures. The newly imposed 50% tariff could severely disrupt Brazil's seafood exports to the US, as Brazil is among the top 20 countries exporting to the United States. According to Expana's foreign trade data platform, Brazil exported nearly 84 million pounds of seafood to the US in 2024, valued at approximately $229 million, ranking 12th by volume and 19th by value. Tilapia, red snapper, and rock lobster are the main seafood products Brazil exports to the US. In the past five years, Brazil has provided an average of 17% of warm-water lobster to the US, but its share has declined from 24% in 2020-2021 to 12% in 2023-2024. Other major seafood suppliers to the US, such as the Bahamas, Honduras, and Nicaragua, may also face high tariffs in the future, though rates are expected to be lower than those for Brazil. Brazil exports grouper, snapper (both fresh and frozen), and swordfish to the US. The 50% tariff could render these products unavailable in the US, with reduced supply inevitably driving price increases. Trump's move immediately prompted a response from Brazil's tilapia industry association Peixe BR, which called for immediate negotiations with the US. While China, the country's largest competitor, is also subject to similar tariffs, another competitor, Colombia, faces a 10% tariff.

The 50% tariff imposed by the United States on Brazilian products at the beginning of July reignited the debate about the impacts of international economic decisions on Brazil's food security. The measure directly affects sectors such as beef, orange juice, coffee, and agricultural machinery, harming exports and pressuring the national productive chain.

Vice President and Minister of Development, Industry, Commerce and Services (MDIC), Geraldo Alckmin, had a new meeting with businesspeople this Thursday, 17th, focusing on the 50% tariff announced by the United States on Brazilian product imports. The videoconference meeting, which began at 9 am, brought together representatives from sectors potentially affected by the tariff, including aircraft, beef, cellulose, sugar-energy, and orange juice. Participants in the meeting included the president and Global CEO of Stefanini Group, Marco Stefanini; the president of Embraer, Francisco Gomes Neto; the superintendent director of Weg, Alberto Kuba; the president of Suzano, João Alberto Fernandez de Abreu; the CEO of Citrosuco, Marcelo Abud; the CEO of Aeris Energy, Alexandre Negrão; the CEO of Prumo Logística, Rogério Sekeff Zampronha; Global CEO of JBS Group, Gilberto Tomazoni; executive vice president of Raízen, Claudio Oliveira; and sustainability and institutional relations director ...
