It is just prohibitively expensive to ship individual products in.
Also there is no Amazon or its like here.
Hello back from Iceland!
Edit: You know, thinking about the amount of flights to and from Kevflavik, no matter if commercial airlines, or business jets doing a stopover there for refueling, I feel there is a niche to exploit. For something like a mini UPS/FedEX/DHL using that empty space, which has to be there?
I mean, open https://globe.adsbexchange.com/ point it to KEF, let it run for a day in some tab, and see how much air traffic from BOTH sides of the Atlantic goes there?
It isn't that there is difficulty actually transporting goods here.
It is that with transportation and import fees the products can, and often does, double in price. For cheaper things, it simply doesn't make financial sense to pay 4-5x the product price in fees.
