CNH Industrial has resumed shipments of sold units from its North America plants as the tractor and bulldozer maker evaluates the full impact of tariffs on its business, a spokesperson confirmed Tuesday afternoon.
The multinational company, known for brands like Case and New Holland, had previously paused shipments from the region, calling it a “temporary move” as CNH assesses enacted and planned tariffs on pricing. More than one-third of CNH’s manufacturing capacity is in North America, according to its website. It also stopped European imports in response to tariff uncertainty, which remained paused as of Wednesday.
“Impact to future orders will be announced at a later time,” a spokesperson said in an email Tuesday.
CNH first issued a statement about stopping U.S. shipments April 1, the day before President Donald Trump shared his “Liberation Day” plans to implement a sweeping 10% baseline tariff on all countries, with additional levies against economic powers like China, the EU and Japan.
“There are no impacts to production, and parts shipments continue as planned,” CNH said in its previous statement. “We will continue to monitor the situation.”
The company in recent months issued layoff notices affecting nearly 400 workers at two factories in Fargo, North Dakota, and Benson, Minnesota, citing “current and anticipated market conditions.”
Over the past year, CNH, Deere and other farm and equipment manufacturers have reduced production to realign with consumer demand as they navigate a down agricultural market. Meanwhile, Trump’s 25% tariff on steel and aluminum imports, in addition to the effect of reciprocal and retaliatory tariffs from other nations, are further pressuring companies and creating trade and market uncertainty.
CNH owned or leased at least 40 manufacturing facilities around the world, with 15 across North America, according to its website. In a February outlook, the company projected 2025 sales to fall 13% to 18% compared to last year, driven in part by weaker demand.
