New partnership to make it easier for Canadians to buy from US retailers

November 15, 2013

GoECart, a provider of e-commerce solutions, has announced a new collaboration with Canada Post that it says will improve the online shopping experience when Canadians buy from U.S. retailers.

The integration of the Canada Post shipping platform with GoECart's multichannel e-commerce platform will enable GoECart's U.S.-based retail partners to quickly retrieve shipping rates and times, print shipping labels and track shipments. As a result, Canadian customers will benefit from a transparent, hassle-free shipping and delivery experience when they're shopping online from U.S. retailers, according to the company.

"Canadian shoppers want an efficient, convenient and seamless end-to-end shopping experience no matter where they shop," said René Desmarais, senior vice president, parcels, at Canada Post. "Canada Post is serving these customer expectations by simplifying and improving the cross-border online shopping process."

"Our integration with Canada Post enables GoECart merchants to manage their order fulfillment, shipping and logistics operations in Canada with more confidence, as they are now seamlessly connected to the largest retail postal network in Canada," GoECart CEO Manish Chowdhary said in the announcement. "Shipping to Canada has become as simple as shipping to Texas."
