flag US tariffs mistakenly affecting Norfolk Island hit Canadian couple's hair accessory business, Kooshoo.

flag Jesse Schiller and Rachel Evans, a Canadian couple running a plastic-free hair accessories business called Kooshoo on Australia's Norfolk Island, are likely the only business owners on the island affected by US tariffs. flag Despite Norfolk Island not exporting to the US, Kooshoo's products, manufactured in Japan and India, will face higher tariffs, which could impact their 80% US market share. flag The island's inclusion in the tariff list, with a 29% rate, is believed to be a mistake due to incorrectly labeled customs paperwork. flag The couple remains optimistic about their business's future.
