If your company is like most in America these days, you're being
challenged to get better marketing results out of a shrinking budget.
Well, here's some good news: The North American Free Trade Agreement
(NAFTA) offers you the possibility of significant savings when you
have your next exhibit built and designed by CTM in Canada.
You'll save on materials, labor and shipping because of the lower-priced
Canadian dollar (One Canadian dollar is about 65-cents US!).
1. Our experts can ship, install and dismantle your exhibit for
you - freeing you from handling the logistics, so you can concentrate
on achieving your goals. Afterwards, if you require, we can arrange
to store your exhibit until your next show.
2. The rules of NAFTA enable you to have CTM create your exhibit
in Canada and ship it to your trade show destination in the U.S.,
duty free.
3. When you ship from Canada you won't have to pay the hefty trade
show tariff the teamsters charge. Here's a real-life example from
our files:
CTM recently shipped a 9,000 lb. exhibit
from our manufacturing facility near Vancouver to a software show
in Las Vegas. If you shipped it yourself from Seattle, for example,
you would have paid $6,000 or more. We shipped it for just $ 3,000
- a significant savings.
4. Tax savings, too
You also pay no sales taxes in Canada. And depending on where
you ship or store your exhibit - Las Vegas, for example - you
may not pay any US sales taxes either. Since circumstances vary
from state to state, we recommend that you consult with your tax
advisor on what your best options are.
