"We have been shipping to Canadian customers from our boutiques since the beginning, so launching in Canada was a natural next step for us," said Olga Vidisheva, Founder and CEO. "We're also very excited about the potential: Canadian online retail sales grew from C$15.3 billion (US$ 11.7 billion) to C$22.3 billion (US$17 billion) between 2010 and 2014 and are expected to reach C$39.9 billion (US$30.5 billion) by 2019. The market is growing very quickly and we're thrilled to now be a part of it."
 
Founded in 2012, Shoptiques.com is an online destination for smaller boutiques with local clientele bases. The expansion into Canada will allow the company to provide back-end e-commerce capabilities including inventory management, web hosting and email marketing for its Canadian boutique partners. All orders over C$125 will ship for free.

One of the first Canadian boutiques on the platform is Toronto-based Grafic. Store owner Doriano Carlo said, "We're excited to be working with Shoptiques.com because it will allow us to reach a fast-growing market of boutique shoppers online. The platform gets us in front of new customers—and we can't wait to utilize the Shoptiques.com team's expertise to expand our digital marketing strategy." 
 
Shoptiques.com aims to continue growing its number of retail boutique partners in Canada.
