How Canadians Are Shopping This Season

Many Canadians are embracing the return of in-store shopping this holiday season, thanks to retail stores reopening after last year’s lockdowns. But digital touchpoints continue to be a core part of the Canadian shopping experience, with 70% of shoppers (and 80% of new shoppers)* engaging with a brand’s digital touchpoints at least once before making a purchase. Nearly 60% of Canadians** plan on doing at least part of their holiday shopping online this year, indicating that the modern Canadian shopper is more omnichannel than ever. 

Choosing a .CA domain for your small business’ online store not only shows that your business is Canadian, but also amplifies your brand’s credibility and recognition in the Canadian market. With a custom .CA domain, you can be confident that your audience sees you as 100% Canadian and accessible to the shoppers looking to support you this season.
