SharkNinja CEO Says There's No Supply Chain for US-Made Blenders
SharkNinja Inc., the maker of Ninja Creami ice cream machines and Shark FlexStyle hair tools, is planning to largely cut China out of its supply chain for the US market as tariffs increase costs. But it's not going to make those products in America, either, Chief Executive Officer Mark Barrocas said.
The household appliance company started curbing its reliance on China after President Donald Trump's last trade war and has accelerated that process in recent months. SharkNinja is planning to source almost all of its products for the US from places other than China by the end of 2025, with an interim goal of shifting 90% of its American-bound production elsewhere by the end of the second quarter.
