What Canada’s modernized border means for your business

     USA-Canada Border Sign

The 2017 Canadian Society of Customs Brokers (CSCB) National Annual Conference, held in St. Andrews by-the-Sea, New Brunswick, September 24-26, focused on Canada’s Modernized Border, a hot button topic for many Canadian businesses.     

Our attendees included several of the company’s most senior executives: Michael Glionna, President, David Glionna, Vice President – Finance and Mark Glionna, Vice President – Client Relations & Business Development.  “This conference was a top priority for us and well worth the investment of time as the workshops and seminars gave us a unique insight on what is happening on the border,” says Michael Glionna.  “There was a lot to learn in terms of security, trade agreements and future CBSA (Canadian Border Services Agency) initiatives, and we will be passing on those insights to our many valued clients.”  

For more information, contact Mark Glionna, Vice President – Client Relations & Business Development.

Quick Tip #14
Don’t just insure the value of the goods

When insuring your freight, you are fully entitled to value your goods at a price above the base cost. Valuation of goods may include all freight charges, related costs, plus 10% (or more) to cover the administrative burden of processing a claim and to cover the insured’s profit. Since duty is still payable on damaged goods, make sure you insure the amount of duty as well.
