US fulfillment for Canadian brands

Your US warehouse, just across the border.

For Canadian brands selling to US customers: keep stock in our Michigan warehouse and every US order ships the same day as a domestic package. No US company needed.

Why Canadian brands use a US warehouse

Ship US orders like a US brand.

Shipping every order across the border works while US sales are small. As they grow, a US warehouse changes the cost, the speed and the customer experience.

01

Domestic US shipping for your US customers

Orders ship from Michigan on domestic UPS, USPS, FedEx and DHL eCommerce services. Orders received by 1:00 PM Eastern ship the same day, with no cross-border wait for each parcel.

02

Close to Canada

Michigan borders Ontario, so inventory can travel to us by truck instead of by sea or air. Restocking a US warehouse just across the border is simpler than restocking one across the continent.

03

No US company needed

You do not need a US company or US address to work with us. You stay a Canadian business; we are your warehouse and shipping team in the US.

04

Lower cost per order

Ship stock across the border in bulk, then send each US order as a domestic package. From Michigan, 72% of the US population is within UPS Zone 5 or less.

05

Amazon.com and every other channel

We prep and send stock into Amazon US fulfillment centers and ship your Shopify, Walmart, eBay, Etsy and TikTok Shop orders from the same inventory.

06

Straightforward pricing

Rates from $1.25 per order, no setup fees, no minimums and free receiving with an advance ship notice.

Questions from Canadian brands

US fulfillment FAQ

Do I need a US company to use a US fulfillment center?

No. Canadian businesses work with us directly, without setting up a US company or a US address. Your customs broker handles importing your stock into the US, and we take it from there.

How does my inventory get from Canada to your warehouse?

Most Canadian brands send inventory by truck (LTL or full truckload) through a carrier and customs broker, who clear it into the US. Michigan borders Ontario, so it is a short trip from much of Canada. Send us an advance ship notice and receiving is free.

How much does US fulfillment cost?

Standard rates start at $1.25 per order, with no setup fees and no minimums. Storage is a monthly base rate plus a per-pallet rate. Rates are negotiated on your monthly volume, storage needs and shipping method.

Are your rates in US or Canadian dollars?

Our rates are quoted in US dollars.

How fast will my US customers get their orders?

Orders received by 1:00 PM Eastern ship the same day on domestic US services. From Michigan, 72% of the US population is within UPS Zone 5 or less.

Can you send my stock into Amazon US (FBA)?

Yes. We prep inventory to Amazon requirements and ship it into Amazon fulfillment centers, and ship your other channel orders from the same stock.

Can you also ship orders to customers in Canada?

Yes. We ship worldwide with USPS, UPS, FedEx and DHL eCommerce international services, so one US warehouse can serve both countries if that suits your business.

Which sales channels do you connect to?

Shopify, Amazon, WooCommerce, BigCommerce, Walmart, eBay, Etsy, TikTok Shop, Wix, Squarespace, Adobe Commerce and dozens more. Custom systems can integrate through our API.
