Canada is in a great position to trade off their comparative industrial advantages in Asia

• Processing manufacturing are moving from China to countries such as Vietnam, Cambodia and Myanmar.
• Customer support services are doing well in the Philippines, Thailand and Malaysia.
• Resource-based industries are growing in Indonesia.
• Canada is both resource rich with strong industrial manufacturing

A benefit of CP-TPP is the strengthening of cultural and commercial links between the ASEAN region and Canada. Canada’s trade and investment in Southeast Asia is growing across all major economic sectors.

ASEAN EXPLAINED:

The Association of Southeast Asian Nations, ASEAN, is an association of major Asian countries (excluding China) that promotes economic growth via unified processes, duty relief and easier cross border processing. The ASEAN Charter and processes have legal effect the 10 ASEAN Member States.

Canadian Sellers Partnering with Local Asian Brands

A key element of establishing credibility in the online marketplace is to use trusted brands for delivery. Jet Worldwide's best in class shipping services connect Canadian sellers with known brands in the Asia (Ninja Van), Japan (Japan Post), and China (China Post).

The "rest of the world" is no longer the "rest of the world"

For many Canadian companies, international means shipping cross border to the USA and then grouping all others as "rest of world." At Jet Worldwide, we believe it is best for Canadian retailers to target specific countries or regions. Doing so increases the likelihood of success. In other words, the best way to go global is to focus on local markets.

Leading International Markets for Canadian Online Orders

The major growth opportunity for the retail online marketplace is cross border sales. Canadian retailers often serve niche markets - for example in winter wear - that are attractive to certain markets. Furthermore, Canadian retailers can embrace the value of being, well, Canadian.

The leading international markets for Canadian e-commerce sellers includes Asian, ASEAN and CPTPP Countries, most notably Japan and China.

Jet Worldwide has direct shipping, import and last mile delivery solutions to all the world's major economies.
