Logitech's Production Strategy and Tariff Impact

ZURICH (Reuters) -Logitech International is making good progress on shifting its production lines out of China to reduce the impact of U.S. tariffs on its computer peripherals, Chief Executive Hanneke Faber said on Wednesday

Current Production Status

The changes were announced in April to lessen the impact of U.S. duties on Chinese imports, which currently amount to 20% and 30% on the mice and keyboards Logitech makes in the country.

Cost Implications of the Shift

"We said in April we were at 40% of products bound for the U.S coming from China and by the end of the year we will be at 10%," Faber told Reuters after Logitech reported its Q1 2026 earnings.

Future Production Goals

"We are a little bit better than 30% now, we are well on track," she added.

The shift in production lines to Malaysia, Thailand, Vietnam and Taiwan was not leading to any material cost increases, she said.
