Anri Seki

Anri Seki is the executive vice-president for Waza, a Los Angeles-based company specializing in Japanese-made products such as kitchen knives and incense. In response to recent tariff increases imposed by the U.S. government, Seki has expressed concerns regarding the fairness of the trade agreements, particularly a 15% tariff deal with Japan that she finds disappointing. Despite the challenges, she remains hopeful that her business can navigate through the uncertainties and is considering expansion outside the U.S.
