Tailor Launches Operations Resilience Grant for U.S. Retailers Impacted by Tariffs and Supply Chain Disruptions

Tailor, the headless ERP platform for modern retail and ecommerce operations, announced the Tailor Operations Resilience Grant, a financial support program for U.S.-based retailers. The company has extended the application deadline to June 20, 2025, in light of ongoing tariff and supply chain volatility.

The initiative is designed to support ecommerce and retail operators navigating increased sourcing costs, vendor price hikes, and fulfillment disruptions, particularly in verticals most affected by recent economic policy shifts.

"Economic shocks like this year's new tariffs often hit SMB retailers the hardes, especially those that already operate complex, omnichannel supply chains," said Tailor Co-founder and CEO Yo Shibata. "Our intention behind this program is to help business owners and operators focus more on adapting to rapidly changing market conditions, and not only absorbing losses."


Grant Details and Eligibility

Applications are open to U.S.-based ecommerce and omnichannel retailers that made at least $1 million in annual revenue in 2024 and are planning or currently undergoing supply chain transformation in 2025.

  • Award amount is $5,000; recipients will be selected based on need and impact
  • Open to current Tailor customers and non-customers alike
  • Deadline: June 20, 2025
  • Recipients will be notified by email 1-2 weeks following the application deadline
  • Strongly encouraged for companies in affected categories such as home goods, apparel, electronics, beauty, and custom products
  • Short, 5-minute application: tailor.tech/grant
