How To Avoid Tariffs When Shipping From A Chinese 3PL Into USA
If you're using a Chinese 3PL to have your e-commerce order fulfilled and shipped into the United States, you might be in trouble now.
Recently, there are duties and taxes introduced for products shipped from China into USA, which you or your customer will ultimately have to pay for. This will lead to less orders placed on your e-commerce website, greater customer dissatisfaction (surprise text notifications telling them they have to pay up to get the delivery, for example), less conversions, and your business might go into a decline depending on how great the tariffs and duties might be to your business.
But don't panic because there's good news.
Recently, a number of e-commerce businesses have taken the initiative to avoid these tariffs by having their products imported into Canada, and fulfilled by a Canadian fulfillment center, and then having their orders shipped into USA to their American customers.
If you choose the correct Canadian Fulfillment Center, like ours, 247 Fulfillment, your shipping rates might be so inexpensive that you win big time. And, you scratch out the unattractive fact that "your product shipped from China" (it's 2024 - no-one likes to hear that anymore). Your business will stand out from the competition due to having North American operations!
If you use our free shipping cost estimator here which estimates the cost of shipping your product from Canada into USA, you might be paying under $4.00 to have your order shipped to your customer.
Plus, if the value of the shipment going into USA from Canada is under $800, you won't have to pay anything. Neither will your customer.
And even better - you can open yourself up to a new market.. The untouched Canadian market.
The Canadian e-commerce market is practically untouched and unsaturated for products that provide value to their end customer.
If you want to take the initiative to get ahead of the competition, and stop using a Chinese 3PL to have your e-commerce orders fulfilled, talk to us and get started.
At 247 Fulfillment, we don't have monthly minimums nor do we lock you into "yearly contracts".
