After the US announced tariffs on April 2, 2025, business owners, economists, and politicians responded with worry and debate.
However, I observed another trend: businesses began seeking new trade routes and manufacturing centres to adapt.
The area linking China, Central Asia, the Middle East, and Europe is experiencing the most significant changes.
Tariffs and growing political tensions are changing how goods move across borders. More and more, people—especially businesses—are asking questions like these:
- What is the fastest way to export smartphones from China to Germany?
- How do companies choose routes that let them legally avoid tariffs?
- How do countries become new manufacturing centres?
Seeing this shift, I launched Eurasiatraderoutes.com to provide businesses and individuals with insights into evolving trade routes.
Why Eurasia Trade Routes Matter
Eurasia, stretching from the Atlantic to the Pacific, forms the world’s largest trade zone. This vast region underpins key global supply routes.
You may wonder: why do Eurasian trade routes matter? For example, your smartphones and laptops, made in Asia, are shipped along these very routes to customers worldwide. As a result, whoever controls these routes can influence global trade.
Given their importance, disruptions to these routes—such as conflicts or accidents—can lead to higher prices, shipping delays, and supply chain issues worldwide.
Furthermore, millions of jobs in logistics, manufacturing, and retail rely on these routes, making their continued operation essential.
