US president, Donald Trump, has said that “a major tariff investigation” on imported furniture will be complete in the next seven weeks. He said furniture coming into the US from other countries would face tariffs “at a rate yet to be determined”.

The president said these measures would help revamp furniture manufacturing in the US.

He said the furniture manufacturing business would rebound all across the US, but singled out North Carolina, South Carolina and Michigan as states that would benefit in particular.
