Dearborn's Arab American businesses, particularly the thriving Yemeni cafe industry, are feeling the impact of the US-Canada trade war. While some companies have paused expansion plans due to tariffs, the strong community ties and customer loyalty across the border are helping many businesses survive this period of uncertainty.
In Dearborn, Michigan, home to the largest community of Arab American s in the US, the rising Yemeni cafe industry is navigating a trade war between the US and Canada.
Qahwah House, a leading cafe chain with 32 branches, estimates that 10% of its Dearborn business comes from Canadian customers. However, Donald Trump's announcement of 50% tariffs on Canadian imports in July has forced the company to pause its planned expansion into Toronto. While the tariffs have impacted businesses, the deep cultural ties between communities on both sides of the border mean that many customers remain loyal to their favorite Dearborn establishments despite the political climate.
