Kammac, which has more than three decades experience working with the beer industry, has been awarded both the Authorised Economic Operator (AEO) and the Fulfilment House Due Diligence Scheme (FHDDS) certifications, underscoring our commitment to secure, efficient, and compliant supply chain services.
The AEO certification, endorsed by the World Customs Organisation (WCO), aims to improve international supply chain security and trade efficiency. Recognised in over 70 countries, certification holders work together to reduce customs restrictions and enhance cross-border trade operations.
As an AEO certified company, Kammac now benefits from prioritised customs procedures, enabling faster and more efficient import and export processes, including filings, inspections, and clearances.
“Achieving AEO status following HM Revenue and Custom’s (HMRC) rigorous six-month approval process marks a significant milestone for us,” said Leanne Liddell, Director of Compliance at Kammac. “The certification ensures simplified customs clearances and priority handling, meaning we can offer our customers more streamlined and reliable logistics services.”
Kammac joined sister companies within the Elanders Group in 2023 who are also AEO certified, providing a powerful network to existing and new clients.
“With our global footprint, our AEO certification facilitates seamless collaboration with fellow members, strengthening the service we can offer to clients,” added Liddell. “This certification bolsters logistics, particularly vital for UK-bound goods amidst the post-Brexit landscape.”
Alongside AEO, Kammac’s commitment to ensuring compliance across our operations have been further underscored with certification gained under the Fulfilment House Due Diligence Scheme (FHDDS). This not only demonstrates Kammac’s adherence to stringent UK regulations but also signifies our capability to legally store goods for non-EU sellers, thus expanding our market reach and enhancing business opportunities.
Ged Carabini, CEO at Kammac, is delighted with the potential these certifications provide. They said: “Achieving both AEO status and the FHDDS scheme gives our clients the confidence that Kammac delivers the highest quality service.
“These certifications not only show our commitment to compliance but also signify our ongoing investment in supporting global supply chains for our clients, further strengthening Kammac’s role within the Elanders Group.”
