Customs Trade Partnership Against Terrorism (CTPAT) is but one layer in U.S. Customs and Border Protection’s (CBP) multi-layered cargo enforcement strategy. Through this program, CBP works with the trade community to strengthen international supply chains and improve United States border security. CTPAT is a voluntary public-private sector partnership program which recognizes that CBP can provide the highest level of cargo security only through close cooperation with the principal stakeholders of the international supply chain such as importers, carriers, consolidators, licensed customs brokers, and manufacturers. The Security and Accountability for Every Port Act of 2006 provided a statutory framework for the CTPAT program and imposed strict program oversight requirements.

Seaboard Solutions, Inc. is proud to be certified by the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) as a CTPAT Consolidator. This certification recognizes our company’s commitment in maintaining the highest level of security for the well-being of our facilities and the United States. As a member of the CTPAT program since February 2007, security continues to be an integral part of the culture and business processes at Seaboard Solutions, Inc.

CTPAT remains a voluntary public-private sector partnership program where members work with CBP to strengthen their international supply chains and ultimately improve border security, protecting the supply chain from criminal activities such as drug trafficking, terrorism, human smuggling, and illegal contraband.

The executive leadership and management at Seaboard Solutions, Inc. has developed, and maintains, a multi-layered security program that is consistent with the CTPAT minimum-security criteria (MSC) and remains committed to protecting our organization and supply chain from any illegal or illicit activities.
Security is everyone’s responsibility. All employees and business partners, including contractors, service providers, and visitors are expected to adhere to the CTPAT security policies and procedures that are in place at each of our facilities. Thank you for your assistance and cooperation.

Sincerely,
Heidi Artidiello
Senior Vice-President
