I checked the EC platform originated in Canada

Hello. I'm Chiro, who works in the Canadian office and have been buying a ton of snacks and games since Canada has a two-month tax-free period (for eligible items only) where we don't have to pay the high taxes we normally pay

Have you heard of Shopify? It's a very famous service that allows you to build e-commerce websites. The sales websites of Red Bull and Orion Beer were also built using Shopify
