One of Canada’s leading multi-modal cities, Hamilton is a prime gateway for Canadian businesses looking to export their product.  This fact is enhanced with the Government of Canada identifying the City of Hamilton as a federally designated Foreign Trade Zone (FTZ) point in collaboration with the Hamilton Oshawa Port Authority and John C. Munro Hamilton International Airport.

Hamilton’s Foreign Trade Zone point aims to help businesses expand their reach to international markets through a combination of tax and duty relief programs, tariff exemptions and exclusive concierge investment services by a dedicated group of sector experts.  These individuals are at the ready to assist businesses with inquiries, information, programs and incentives to advance and expand international trade opportunities.  Hamilton’s FTZ point also provides direct contact and programs offered by the Canada Border Service Agency (CBSA) as well as the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) and various Federal and Provincial programs that may be available.
