"Walmart Inc. has asked some Chinese suppliers for major price
reductions, with the US retail giant’s efforts to shift the burden of
President Donald Trump’s tariffs facing strong pushback from firms in
the Asian nation, according to people familiar with the matter.

Some suppliers, including producers of kitchenware and clothing, have
been asked to lower their prices by as much as 10% per round of tariffs,
essentially shouldering the full cost of Trump’s duties, according to
the people, who asked not to be identified as the information is
private. Negotiations are held with individual manufacturers and the
price cuts differ by firm, they said."
