Connecting... PEOPLE, PARCELS AND BUSINESSES... AROUND THE WORLD

In an age of ecommerce, mega platforms are being countered with buy local directories such as  Quebec directory, Panier Bleu.   Such directories play a useful role in educating Quebec shoppers about the importance of buying locally made goods.   And, via Jet, selling to markets that have an affinity for Quebec goods:  Most notably, selling to France.

VAT rules are catching up with the growth of ecommerce to the European union with simplified rules and levelling  the playing field between postal imports,  commercial imports and EU sellers. The new rules, effective July 1st,  actually present a great opportunity for Canadian and US sellers shipping to Europe (and the UK).  Over 70% of EU population purchase online and many search for Canadian goods.

Mega carriers have a goods problem: Too much business.  Canadian shippers have the reciprocal problem:  Higher shipping costs that continue to go higher!
