Why Halifax Brands Choose Matrix

Four Reasons Halifax Brands Fulfill US Orders With Matrix

  1. 1

    Ship Like a US Brand

    US customers get domestic delivery speed and tracking instead of an international parcel from Canada.

  2. 2

    Skip Customs on Every Order

    The US suspended duty-free de minimis entry for low-value parcels in 2025. Import in bulk, then ship each order domestically.

  3. 3

    FDA-Registered Warehouse

    Our Los Angeles facility is FDA registered and ready for cosmetics, supplement and food brands.

  4. 4

    Asia-Made Stock Skips the East

    Products made in Asia can ship from the factory to Los Angeles instead of crossing to the Atlantic coast and back.

Benefits

What Halifax Brands Get With a US Warehouse

Faster US Delivery

Orders ship domestically from Los Angeles instead of as international parcels from Canada.

No Duties on Every Parcel

Import inventory in bulk shipments, then ship orders inside the US with no customs step for your customers.

Easier US Returns

US customers return to a US address. We inspect and restock for $2 per unit, so nothing ships back to Canada.

Shopify and TikTok Shop US

Connect your Shopify store and TikTok Shop US, with inventory synced in real time through ShipHero WMS.

Retail and Wholesale Ready

Ship to US retailers like Erewhon and wholesale marketplaces like Faire, with EDI through SPS Commerce.

Atlantic Time, Covered

Our afternoon is your evening, so orders placed late in the Halifax day still ship from LA the same weekday.

Your US Launch Plan

How Halifax Brands Launch in the US With Matrix

Getting Inventory to Los Angeles

Canadian brands usually send inventory by truck across the border or ship direct from their factory to Los Angeles.

  • Cross-border truck freight to Los Angeles
  • Factory-direct ocean freight from Asia
  • Every unit counted in ShipHero on arrival
  • Restocks planned with your account manager

Running US Orders From Halifax

Halifax is on Atlantic time, 4 hours ahead of Los Angeles all year, since Nova Scotia and California change clocks on the same dates. The 2 PM Pacific same-day cutoff is 6 PM in Halifax, so orders from your whole workday still ship that day.

  • Orders sync automatically from Shopify
  • Same-day shipping by 2 PM Pacific
  • Stock and orders visible in ShipHero 24/7
  • A US account manager on Pacific time

FAQ

US Fulfillment Questions From Halifax Brands

Still unsure? Call (310) 415-7759 and talk to the team that packs your orders.

How can a Halifax brand sell in the USA without its own US warehouse?

Most Halifax Shopify brands start by shipping US orders from home, but every parcel crosses customs, pays international postage and takes longer to arrive. With Matrix, you send inventory to our Los Angeles warehouse in bulk, and US orders ship domestically the same day when they're placed by 2 PM Pacific.

Why use a Los Angeles warehouse for US fulfillment?

Los Angeles puts your stock on the West Coast, where goods made in Asia land at the Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach. Ship factory-direct to us and your US inventory never has to route through Canada.

Is a 4-hour time difference a problem for Halifax brands?

No. Halifax is 4 hours ahead of Los Angeles all year, so the 2 PM Pacific same-day cutoff is 6 PM your time. Stock and orders stay visible in ShipHero around the clock.

Can you fulfill US orders from my existing Shopify store?

Yes. We connect your Shopify store through ShipHero WMS, so US orders route to our Los Angeles warehouse automatically while you keep selling in Canada.

Is Matrix FDA registered?

Yes. Matrix is an FDA-registered facility, which matters for Canadian cosmetics, skincare, supplement and snack brands storing products in the US.

What does US fulfillment cost?

Pick and pack starts at $1.50 per order plus $0.35 per additional item, dropping as low as $0.50 per order at volume. Bin storage is $0.25 per day, there are no setup or platform fees, and everything is quoted in US dollars.

Can Halifax brands sell to US retailers from your warehouse?

Yes. We ship retail and wholesale orders from the same inventory as your DTC orders, including Faire and Airgoods, with EDI through SPS Commerce for retailers that require it.

Should a Halifax brand hold US stock on the East Coast or in Los Angeles?

If your products are made in Asia, Los Angeles is the shorter path: freight lands at the Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach, close to our warehouse. Stock made in Nova Scotia can travel by cross-border truck.
