Kal Beidas, former president and CEO and current board member of Aetna Bearing Company, spoke with Middle Market Growth on the sidelines of the Great Lakes ACG Capital Connection in Detroit to discuss the impact of tariffs on midsize manufacturers and how trade developments are reshaping due diligence. Aetna, a bearing manufacturer based in Livonia, Michigan, is among many U.S. businesses affected by the Trump administration's tariffs on Chinese goods. Beidas described the opportunity costs for companies as they divert resources to customer service, price negotiation with customers and price concessions with suppliers. He also discussed what companies should consider when looking to shift to suppliers outside of China, and he suggested ways to evaluate supply chain exposure when considering an investment.
