# Business Leadership South Africa has called for the National Treasury to be included in a coordinated response to the growing trade crisis. In her weekly newsletter, CEO Busisiwe Mavuso said urgent action is needed to support businesses hit by the 30-percent US tariffs, particularly in the Eastern and Western Cape’s manufacturing and farming sectors. Mavuso welcomed the export support desk but says a trade crisis committee is needed to prevent job losses and stabilise industries.
