Kyle Peacock

Company Principal

Kyle Peacock is the Principal at Peacock Tariff Consulting, where he and his team turn international trade complexity into clarity. With over 20 years of experience in customs compliance, tariff strategy, and cross-border operations, Kyle leads the firm in delivering forensic audits, executive-level contract guidance, and scalable frameworks for global supply chains.

Kyle values the ever-evolving nature of trade, where each challenge brings new learning and each client opens the door to a different industry, region, and way of thinking. Whether securing tariff refunds, navigating USMCA exceptions, or reviewing Certificates of Origin, Kyle strives to make technical wins both teachable and defensible. His approach blends historical context, trivia, and strategic insight to help clients understand not just what works, but why it matters.

Kyle also serves on the Board of Directors at the Orillia Museum of Art & History and is an active Rotary Club member. These roles reflect his values of stewardship, precision, and long-term impact. Outside of work, he finds balance in gardening and fishing, where patience and observation remain just as vital as they are in trade.
