Show Notes

Welcome to The Freight Buyers Club, the essential podcast for global trade professionals and supply chain leaders. Hosted by Mike King and produced with the support of Dimerco Express Group, each episode unpacks critical issues in international trade, geopolitics, and the logistics industry.

As the upcoming U.S. presidential election draws near, we explore what each candidate’s trade policy could mean for global commerce and the technology sector. In this episode, we’re joined by Stephen Olson, a Visiting Fellow at the Institute of Southeast Asian Studies and a member of the World Economic Forum’s Global Futures Council on Trade. With insights from his extensive career as a U.S. trade negotiator and international trade expert, Stephen examines how a Trump or Harris administration might shape tariffs, protectionism, and trade relations with key players like China and Mexico.

Later, Ed Brzytwa, VP of International Trade at the Consumer Technology Association, weighs in on how potential shifts in U.S. policy could impact the tech industry.
