Economy Candy, a beloved candy shop in New York's Lower East Side, faces significant challenges due to tariffs imposed by President Trump. With over a third of its extensive candy inventory imported, owner Mitchell Cohen anticipates sharp price increases on many items, exacerbating inflation trends and affecting the store's affordability. The tariffs are impacting not just large manufacturers but also small businesses like Economy Candy, which has a rich history and deep ties to the community.
