It doesn't sound like a particularly
exciting topic, but it's absolutely critical to your success
in entering the Canadian market. For example:
Did you know that anything sold at that
ever present point-of-sale (POS) display at the end of
aisle 4 in Canadian Tire must have bilingual
(English/French) labeling?
Did you know that the standard size 303
can that American's use for everything from soup to nuts
isn't accepted under Canadian packaging requirements?
Did you know that metric is the
preferred labeling standard?
The following are some helpful guides to
assist you in determining what's right for you.
