NYK Logistics (Nederland) B.V. has recently been awarded two internationally recognised security standards for companies operating within the supply chain, ISO-28000 accreditation and Authorised Economic Operator (AEO) status.

ISO-28000 confirms that NYK has an adequate management system in place for the provision of a secure integrated logistics service covering warehousing, freight forwarding and customs clearance. It helps companies maintain a consistent approach towards security risk management, enabling them to attain a higher level of customer satisfaction.

At the same time, AEO is the equivalent of the United States??? Customs-Trade Partnership Against Terrorism (C-TPAT), the supply chain security system led by US Customs & Border Protection. NYK has been awarded the full certificate, which means that the company is certified for security, safety and customs specifications.

AEO recognition enables NYK to have its consignments fast-tracked through customs control. Therefore, if a consignment is selected for examination, NYK may be in a position to receive priority over non-AEOs.

???Acquisition of these certificates demonstrates NYK???s continuing effort to offer our customers high-quality and secure logistics services,??? said Leo Schoovers, General Manager of NYK Logistics (Nederland) B.V.
