Foreign Trade Zone - Vancouver Island
Foreign Trade Zone - Vancouver Island
Did you know Vancouver Island is a Foreign Trade Zone? Local, Provincial, National, and International shippers can benefit directly from associated trade zone advantages by utilizing Vancouver Island port facilities to move their products and goods. A direct IRC rail link between Vancouver Island and North American rail networks will play a crucial role in maximizing this trade zone status by providing seamless end-to-end benefits to shippers both on and off Vancouver Island, importing, exporting, and moving their products anywhere. IRC is a member of the Vancouver Island Economic Alliance (VIEA) and you can view our profile at viea.ca/author/islandrail
