When Tariffs Move, Who Absorbs the Work?

Live webinar | Wednesday, September 30, 2026, at 11:00 a.m. PT / 2:00 p.m. ET

How suppliers can turn Section 301 repricing and country-of-origin changes into a better reseller experience.

Section 301 repricing, country-of-origin changes, and sourcing decisions can quickly become a reseller problem. Suppliers can make that change easier to manage by identifying affected parts, evaluating cost and origin information, and communicating clear product-data updates to the channel.

Join Jeb Pierce, CEO of MobyTrade, and Johannes Crepon, CEO/Co-founder of PDM, for a practical conversation about turning Section 301-related change into a better reseller experience.

What we will cover

  • How Section 301 repricing, country-of-origin changes, and sourcing decisions can create immediate repricing and communication challenges.
  • What suppliers need to identify affected parts, compare cost scenarios, and maintain confidence in product and fitment data.
  • How to turn country-of-origin and landed-cost data into timely, clear decisions for the channel.
  • Why reducing work, judgment, and risk for resellers protects relationships and shelf space.

A conversation that continues at MEMA

This webinar is a practical lead-in to the upcoming MEMA Technology Conference. The core idea is simple: technology should help suppliers make Section 301 repricing and other sourcing-related change easier on the people who rely on them. At the conference, MobyTrade and PDM will continue that conversation with the aftermarket community, connecting trade, sourcing, product data, and reseller experience to the operating decisions suppliers face every day.

Two perspectives, one goal

MobyTrade brings the trade and operational context behind Section 301 repricing, changing country-of-origin information, sourcing, and landed-cost decisions. PDM brings the product-data perspective: the structured information and workflows suppliers need to understand impact, act accurately, and deliver a cleaner outcome for resellers.

Together, the discussion focuses on a better way to manage change: make the decision faster, make the communication clearer, and make the reseller’s job easier.
