Both Svalbard and Jan Mayen are inhabited. Jan Mayen only by about 35 people, though. Svalbard has both Norwegian and Russian settlements, but of course entirely too small to have impact on US trade.

Svalbard imports a lot of snowmobiles though, given their population. From what I know a substantial fraction, if not most, are from Polaris so made in the US[1].

"A lot" is rather relative here given the total population is around 2.5k people.
True but I think relative numbers are relevant in this context.
