Case Study: Canvas saves on duties and fulfillment costs with ShipBob

How Canvas Saves Money by Outsourcing Fulfillment to ShipBob

Canvas, an Alabama-based artistic equipment brand, was struggling with high import duties and taxes while manufacturing in China and shipping to U.S. customers. To cut those costs and support rapid ecommerce growth, Canvas partnered with ShipBob for fulfillment and began using ShipBob’s Section 321 solution.

With ShipBob, Canvas routed inventory through a bonded warehouse in Tijuana so orders under $800 could be shipped duty-free, while also benefiting from ShipBob’s fulfillment network, transparent billing, and bundling tools. ShipBob helped Canvas save over $45,000 in its first month using Section 321, reduce import costs by about 30%, and cut dock-to-stock transit times by nearly 50%, while also delivering more predictable and economical fulfillment pricing.
