Expanding into the UK & EU?
Avoid US Tariffs & Maximize Growth!
If your growth strategy has been focused primarily on Canada and the USA, then itβs vital to adjust your plan. With ongoing tariffs and trade complexities impacting Canadian exports to the US, expanding into the UK and EU could be your smarter, more profitable move. The UK and Europe offer a massive opportunityβbut the route matters.
ILG makes it easy. Our award-winning omnichannel fulfillment solutions ensure your high-end products reach high-value UK & European customers quickly and cost-effectively.
Bypass US Tariffs & Reach UK & European Customers Faster
With 750,000 sq. ft. of capacity across 12 high-spec fulfillment centers, ILGβs strategically located operations provide easy access to Europeβs biggest markets. As part of the Yusen Logistics network with 118 European bases, we offer seamless, scalable logistics supportβwithout the unpredictability of US tariff changes.

Why Choose the UK & Europe Over the US?
From beauty and fashion to lifestyle and tech, the EU and UK markets are thriving, valued at hundreds of billions of dollars and growing fast. The UK alone ranks as Europeβs largest e-commerce economy, making it the perfect entry point for Canadian brands looking to expand internationally. Unlike the US, where shifting tariffs can eat into margins, expanding into the UK and EU provides stability, scale, and high-value customers.
Simplify Your Expansion with ILG

“As the CEO of ILG, a company that has spent over three decades helping brands grapple the complexities of international expansion, I’ve seen firsthand the challenges and triumphs that come with entering new markets. For Canadian brands eyeing growth, the United Kingdom and the European Union present opportunities that are too significant to ignore. Let’s explore why crossing the Atlantic could be your next strategic move.“

π¨ Less than one week until the EU de minimis rule changes. On 1 July 2026, the β¬150 duty-free threshold disappears. For many UK businesses selling into the EU, that means: π Higher import duties π¦ Increased fulfilment costs π° Reduced margins We’ve analysed real customer shipping data to show just how significant the impact could be – and why many businesses are moving to EU fulfilment before the changes take effect.

π€ π A little adventure-inspired look at what we do best. We’ve taken inspiration from a familiar story to highlight some of the ways ILG supports growing brands. Boot personalisation? We’ve got it covered. Orders picked by the chosen ones? Absolutely. Fulfilment that seems to happen when no one’s looking? Pretty much. And if it feels like there’s a snake in your boot when it comes to your current logistics operation… it might be time for a chat. To new markets and beyond! ππ¦ #WeareILG #Personalisation #OrderPicking #CustomerExperience #BehindTheScenes

Giving Back to Our Charity of the Year π On 11th June, as part of the volunteer days offered by ILG and GFS, Kristine and Sambi . spent the day at Chestnut Tree Houseβs Regional Distribution Centre, helping to sort and prepare donated items for distribution across their charity shops. From clothing and accessories to household goods, every item processed played a part in supporting children with life-limiting conditions and their families. It was a hands-on day that gave a real insight into the incredible work that happens behind the scenes to turn donations into vital funding. A huge thank you to Nicky and the warehouse team for making them feel so welcome and for showing us the impact that even a single day of volunteering can have. We’re proud to support Chestnut Tree House as our Charity of the Year and look forward to continuing our fundraising and volunteering efforts throughout the year. π§‘
