ZenaTech, Inc. announced that its US-based ZenaDrone subsidiary expects to benefit from recent US administration announcements doubling tariffs on Chinese drone imports and parts from 10% to 20%. This will negatively impact many US drone companies reliant on Chinese components.
ZenaDrone's strategy involves sourcing and manufacturing drone cameras, sensors, and other components at its Taiwan-based Spider Vision Sensors company. This approach reduces supply chain risk and ensures NDAA-compliant parts for its US Defense-destined drone products, which will be manufactured in Arizona.
CEO Shaun Passley, Ph.D., stated that the focus on strengthening US manufacturing and reducing reliance on Chinese imports is a 'game-changer' for American companies like ZenaTech. By leveraging Taiwan's capabilities and focusing on security and compliance, ZenaTech is positioned to meet increasing defense demand and minimize operational risks, potentially benefiting from US manufacturing tax breaks.
