But why would orange juice be effected by tariffs?

Would it have anything to with growers shipping concentrate out of the country to get bottled and then re-importing it back to stores?

According to the text in the article it’s a Canadian grocery store. So they presumably imported it from the US.

I have a bottle of this in my fridge and if you want another answer it's because they import a portion of their oranges from Brazil. They don't say where it's been packaged though
