France companies now have new options for selling their goods to the USA and Canada via Jet Worldwide. Jet Worldwide provides parcel storage, reverse logistics and distribution services to Canada and the USA.
With the economic challenges in France over the last several years, any of these French “very small and medium-sized businesses” (VSEs and SME’s) are looking outside of the European Economic Community to the USA and Canada.
Although France is home to more than 30 of the world’s 500 largest companies, VSE’s and SME’s are the backbone of the French economy. Small and medium-sized businesses account for over 95% of French businesses and employ half the workers in France.
E-commerce technologies has opened up opportunities for French VSE and SME’s to expand globally. However, finding low-cost, reliable delivery can be difficult for single parcels into Canada and the USA. International postal options are unreliable with little customer support and FedEx/ UPS from France is prohibitively expense.
Sending parcels to Canada is made more difficult due to the cost of clearing items over CAD 20.
