💨 Abstract

South Africa is facing potential 30% trade tariffs from the United States, which could jeopardize around 30,000 jobs. The tariffs specifically target agriculture, automotive, and textiles industries and will mainly impact exports to the US as diplomatic tensions escalate between the two nations. South Africa seeks to mitigate losses by exploring new export markets in Africa and Asia, and the government established a support desk for this purpose.
