Ammo Manufacturers in Gorazde Face Uncertain Future Amid Rising Tariffs**

Tariffs imposed by the U.S. present a significant financial challenge for Bosnian ammunition producers, igniting fears of market instability.**


The ammunition manufacturers in the Bosnian city of Gorazde, having previously withstood the challenges of war, now grapple with the consequences of new tariffs from the United States, threatening their livelihood and export stability.**


Under the shadow of mountains and rich landscapes, the ammunition producers in Gorazde, Bosnia and Herzegovina, are bracing for tough times due to recent tariffs imposed by the U.S. government. Historically significant in manufacturing bullets and shells during the Balkan wars, the industry has provided steady employment and contributed to the local economy for decades. However, the latest tariffs introduced by President Trump pose a new threat to their viability.

The American penchant for firearms has traditionally supported Gorazde’s economy, with the ammunition factories that date back to the days of Yugoslavia being integral to their production capabilities. But the tariffs aimed at various trading partners, including Bosnia, have disrupted this stability. For instance, Ginex, a local firm known for manufacturing ignition devices – crucial components in ammunition – has put a freeze on its expansion plans while it assesses the impact of escalating tariffs on its U.S. exports.

The uncertainties around the tariff rates, which were announced at 35 percent before being revised to 10 percent, have left companies like Ginex anxious. Demir Imamovic, the marketing manager for Ginex, expressed concern that either rate could deter American customers, a situation that could halt all exports. With tariffs potentially more than doubling previous rates, the ammunition producers in Gorazde are confronted with an economic dilemma that could lead to severe operational challenges, casting doubt over their future in a once lucrative market.
