Soon custom fees between Canada and the EU will fall. AC team do your homework and look into this, it can greatly benefit you.
And please look into setting up a distribution hub on continental Europe. Your shipping costs are outrageous.

Also with Trumpistan potentially putting up to 30% custom fees on your products you might need an alternative to their market.

You do know that their distribution is here, right?

It doesn't matter where they distribute, it only matters where they produce (which according to Mikey is "in many parts of the world" including Indonesia).
Although Trump on the one occasion where he was asked about it actually said he doesn't want a border tax (he thinks it's too complicated), so there is still hope (plus there's also resistance from several republican senators as this tax would make average daily items, especially supermarket products, much more expensive - which is very very likely to anger their own voters).

I've seen countries with more left-wing support implement those taxes. Trump is a businessman and somewhat of a corporatist. I doubt he'll implement heavy customs fees.

Germany has import taxes however these are not advantageous for local producers since these have to pay value added tax which foreign producers can get refunded in their own country. There are no plans in the US government to introduce such value added taxes for US producers (which is the reason why US border taxes would violate WTO rules and most likely lead to a global trade war in which everyone looses).

It would be more accurate to say "the" shipping costs are outrageous rather than "your" shipping costs are outrageous. The latter seems to imply that we have some sort of control over them.
