Birchbox launches in Canada

New York --Online beauty retailer Birchbox is launching in Canada, marking the sixth country the company has expanded to since launching in the United States in Sept. 2010.



Since our launch in 2010, we’ve had tens of thousands of customer inquiries regarding shipping to Canada,” says Birchbox co-Founder and co-CEO Katia Beauchamp. “So we’re thrilled to finally bring Birchbox north of the border.”



Birchbox boxes in Canada will officially be open for purchase on Nov. 12, with the first Canadian Birchboxes shipping in December. Birchbox subscriptions for women cost $14.95 per month or $159.40 per year including shipping and taxes.



As the newest members of Birchbox’s 800,000-plus subscriber base, Canadian consumers will now have the opportunity to try, learn about and buy premium beauty products previously unavailable in Canada. The international growth will allow Canadian beauty brands to expand both nationwide and internationally to enable customers to experience products not previously available in the U.S.
