At Protela, excellence is not only woven into our textiles, it is also reflected in the way we manage our international operations. That is why we are proud to continue positioning ourselves as a company committed to transparency, security and efficiency in the global supply chain, through our certification as an Authorized Economic Operator (AEO).
As an active member of the Central Regional Advisory Group, we actively participate in the creation of strategies that promote collaboration between the private sector and public entities. This work has allowed us to us to contribute to the strengthening of ties with the National Tax and Customs Directorate (DIAN), generating effective communication channels that favor a more agile and reliable trade.
Recently, the DIAN announced the re-evaluation visit of the AEO certification, a crucial process to ensure that we continue to comply with the highest international standards in customs security and logistics. At Protela we understand that this is a challenge that involves all of us. For this reason, we are deeply grateful for the dedication and commitment of each of the collaborators who have participated in the consolidation and management of the information necessary to successfully advance in this stage.
