We are C-TPAT certified and encourage our customers and eligible partners to apply as well. The Customs-Trade Partnership Against Terrorism (C-TPAT) is a voluntary supply chain security program led by U.S. Customs and Border Protection and focused on improving the security of private companies’ supply chains with respect to terrorism. Being C-TPAT certified preemptively reduces time lost to delays and screenings as the pre-work for shipments has been finished and handled ahead of time, reducing surprises and rejections.
