Cross Border Market Testing

Test new markets before moving inventory

Launch into Canada or the U.S. through cross border fulfillment first, then localize inventory inside our North American network once volume, demand, and economics make sense.

01

Start Cross Border

A U.S. brand can ship into Canada before placing inventory in Ontario or B.C. A Canadian brand can do the same into the U.S. before committing to localized U.S. inventory.

U.S. or Canadian Brand Ship cross border first without splitting inventory.
Test Demand Validate volume, cost, and customer experience.
Localize Inventory Move into ON, BC, or U.S. fulfillment nodes.
02

Then Localize

Once the market is proven, inventory can be positioned closer to customers to improve delivery speed, lower parcel costs, and reduce border friction.

Lower Upfront Risk

Enter a new country without immediately splitting inventory across multiple warehouses.

Prove Demand First

Use actual order volume and shipping data before committing to a localized inventory strategy.

Scale Into the Network

Graduate into Ontario, B.C., or U.S. fulfillment nodes as demand becomes more predictable.

LOCAL DELIVERY EXPERIENCE

Cross border shipping that feels local to the customer

Duties and taxes can be handled upfront while shipments move into the destination country and inject into local carrier networks for a more familiar delivery experience.

Cross Border Movement

Orders move from Canada to the U.S. or the U.S. to Canada through the appropriate customs workflow.

Injected Into Local Networks

Shipments can route through domestic carriers customers already recognize in the destination country.

Better Delivery Experience

Reduce surprise fees, delivery friction, and failed delivery issues that can impact conversion and retention.

DDP & DDU Shipping

Deliver duties paid upfront — or let customers pay on import

Different brands have different cross border strategies. Some prefer a seamless landed-cost experience with duties and taxes handled upfront, while others choose to have duties collected from the customer at import or delivery. 247 supports both so you can tailor your customer experience to your liking.

DDP Delivered Duty Paid

Duties and taxes can be remitted on the customer’s behalf for a smoother delivery experience with fewer surprises at the door.

  • Better customer experience
  • Transparent landed cost
  • Reduced delivery friction
DDU / DAP Delivered Duty Unpaid / Delivered At Place

Duties and taxes can instead fall to the customer at import or delivery, depending on the brand’s strategy and target market.

  • Lower upfront shipping cost
  • Flexible market testing
  • Useful for lower-risk expansion
