TJX  (TJX) , which owns TJ Maxx, HomeGoods, Marshalls, etc., recently saw a spike in sales, and it is confident that it will be able to maintain that momentum even if President-elect Donald Trump passes a policy that some retailers claim will negatively impact their consumers’ wallets.

FRAMINGHAM - President-elect Donald Trump's plan to impose tariffs has some business owners worried that they'll be forced to raise prices and potentially lose customers. The CEO of TJ Maxx, however, sees an opportunity.

TJX Companies CEO Ernie Herrman said during an earnings call that the company could benefit from President-elect Trump's proposed tariffs on imported goods.

Companies and economists warn that President-elect Donald Trump’s plans to slap tariffs on all US imports will cause havoc in supply chains and raise prices for customers. But TJ Maxx believes that Trump’s tariff plans will benefit the discount chain.

The president-elect's proposed tariffs might lead to retailers ordering inventory earlier, adding extra goods to the market for T.J. Maxx.

TJX ( TJX ), the parent company of TJ Maxx, Marshalls and HomeGoods, said Wednesday that the “chaos” Trump’s tariffs may bring to the retail industry plays right into its business model. Tariffs are taxes placed on imported goods designed to protect domestic manufacturers.
