Canada Creates Two Foreign Trade Zones in Alberta

Western Economic Diversification Canada Jun 08, 2015

Today, the Honourable Michelle Rempel, Minister of State for Western Economic Diversification, announced the creation of two 'single-window' Foreign Trade Zone (FTZ) Points in the province of Alberta, to strengthen the region's international trade capacity.

Port Alberta, which serves the Edmonton region, and the Calgary Region Inland Port, will assist in leveraging the province's role as a hub for international transportation, manufacturing, and distribution. By designating the new FTZ Points for Port Alberta and Calgary Region Inland Port, national and international companies will now have faster and more efficient access to markets in Western Canada and beyond.

Quick Facts

  • An FTZ Point is a strategic location identified for international trade and foreign direct investment which is uniquely supported by a single-point of access to information on relevant government policies and programs.
  • Improving trade corridors of importance to Western Canada will support the flow of goods, services, and people into and out of the region to strengthen access to key global markets.
  • Alberta offers a strategic location to markets in Western Canada and provides a competitive tax jurisdiction for business, as well as a skilled workforce for warehousing, distribution and transportation.
  • Canada's first FTZ Point, CentrePort Canada in Winnipeg, Manitoba, has been successful in offering investors single-window access to FTZ benefits, and connecting major national and international trade gateways and corridors.
