Mid-Market Companies Accelerate Domestic Sourcing Push
The reshoring wave isn't coming—it's already here. More than 60% of mid-market CEOs report they've already locked in new domestic suppliers or recalibrated their pricing strategies to counter tariff pressures and escalating costs.
The stat signals a fundamental shift in how mid-sized companies are thinking about supply chain resilience heading into 2026. Rather than waiting to see how trade policy shakes out, these leaders are making moves now to reduce exposure to international supply chain disruptions and cost volatility.
For 3PLs and fulfillment providers, this represents both opportunity and pressure. As more companies bring sourcing and manufacturing closer to home, demand for domestic warehousing, regional distribution, and last-mile capabilities will likely intensify. But it also means clients will be navigating tighter margins and looking for partners who can help them maintain profitability through efficiency gains and flexible capacity.
The pricing strategy adjustments mentioned by these CEOs suggest they're not just absorbing higher costs—they're passing them through while simultaneously restructuring their supply bases. That dual approach could reshape how 3PLs need to structure their own pricing and service offerings to remain competitive with cost-conscious clients operating on thinner margins.
