The Challenge
Too many policies are set without the perspective of import agents—leaving businesses to carry costs without a voice. The result: higher risk, unpredictable expenses, and fewer chances to compete.
Why Advocacy Matters
Every tax, markup, and policy shift affects margins. A unified voice means fair treatment, access to decision-makers, and a more stable market for everyone.
