How Upcoming US Tariff Changes Are Impacting FOTILE Pricing

Why Tariffs Are Driving Up Appliance Costs

Tariffs are extra taxes the government adds to imported goods, often to influence trade or protect local businesses. Recently, the U.S. has introduced higher tariffs on products from China — including many of the materials and appliances used in the kitchen industry.

For FOTILE, this means that nearly every product we ship to the U.S. — from cooktops to range hoods — now carries a significantly higher import fee before it even reaches our warehouse. These additional costs aren’t limited to the final product alone; they also affect raw materials, parts, and shipping infrastructure used in production and distribution.

How This Affects FOTILE Products and Pricing

The upcoming U.S. tariff changes will directly shape the cost structure of how FOTILE appliances reach American households. As of May 8, 2025, the total import fees applied to each FOTILE product entering the United States will increase substantially — a change that impacts everything from individual units to the broader systems that support their delivery and performance.

These new import duties don’t just affect the final product. They influence multiple layers of the process, including:

• Sourcing of premium materials used in our manufacturing.
• Component-level production for features like our signature suction systems and smart controls.
• International freight and customs processing are now more complex and costly.

This is a challenging moment, not just for FOTILE but for all international brands operating in a shifting economic landscape. But one thing remains unchanged: our commitment to excellence, transparency, and customer care.

We are honored to serve our U.S. customers and will continue doing everything in our power to maintain the quality, integrity, and innovation you’ve come to expect from us — no matter the market conditions.

Thank you for your continued trust and support.

Why FOTILE is Raising Prices

This decision to raise prices was not made lightly. Adjusting our prices allows us to continue delivering the high-performance, thoughtfully engineered kitchen solutions you expect from FOTILE — without compromising on quality, innovation, or design. Even with this change, we’re committed to keeping our margins minimal so that excellence remains accessible.

FOTILE will be increasing the prices of our products sold in the United States starting on May 8, 2025.
