SBA, GSA Remove Over 20 China-Linked Products as Trump Pushes Made-in-America Procurement

Summary
Nearly two dozen products were pulled from the federal Advantage! marketplace after the SBA and GSA said some China-linked vendors may have falsely marketed goods as American-made.
Kelly Loeffler said the action followed complaints that some companies were only partially assembling or finishing products in the U.S. while claiming "Made in America" status.
The SBA said such mislabeling can expose agencies and contractors to violations of domestic-sourcing rules, including the 1933 Buy American Act and older defense procurement requirements.
The move extends a broader Trump administration push to steer federal spending toward U.S. manufacturers and limit procurement risks tied to China-sourced goods.
SBA did not identify the vendors removed, though Sherrill Manufacturing, a New York flatware maker, said it had raised the concerns at a White House small business summit.
