How can a mainland Chinese company ship a product overnight to the US (Often with free shipping) while a similar parcel & product class from Canada usually takes nearly 2 weeks to make a shorter trip?
In: Economics
Chinese subsidies are a thing but more likely the company has a local distributor.
They don’t wait for a buyer before shipping. They ship over a whole container load by boat, which takes weeks, but is the cheap per item.
They hold them here in a warehouse until customers are lined up, then ship from the stateside warehouse.
