Celebrating Secure Trade: Supply Chain Security Day Returns to Monterrey

Celebrating Secure Trade: Supply Chain Security Day Returns to Monterrey

On August 13, Monterrey will once again become a center for collaboration, innovation, and dialogue as industry leaders gather for the annual Supply Chain Security Day.

Victor Chavez, Executive Director of the Cluster of Security, organizes the event each year. The organization focuses on advancing education and promoting secure trade. Through this effort, it continues to strengthen partnerships across the global supply chain community.

This year’s program will bring together key stakeholders who share a commitment to strengthening supply chain security and resilience. In addition, attendees can expect expert presentations, collaborative discussions, and opportunities to exchange best practices for protecting international trade.

Strengthening Partnerships Across the Global Supply Chain

One of the event’s highlights will be a presentation from Carlos Ochoa, SCAN Executive Director. Additionally, he will join a panel discussion with representatives from the Customs Trade Partnership Against Terrorism (CTPAT).

U.S. Customs and Border Protection leads CTPAT, a voluntary public-private partnership program that promotes secure trade. During the event, CTPAT representatives will deliver a presentation and share insights during the panel discussion. Together, the speakers will emphasize the importance of trusted partnerships in addressing evolving security challenges.

Additional attendees include Eric Sherman, SCAN Audit Program Director, and Dina Amato, CBP CTPAT Executive Director. Their participation also reflects a continued commitment to advancing secure and efficient trade practices.

SCAN to Host Special CTPAT Anniversary Celebration

In addition to the conference program, SCAN will host a sponsored social gathering on the evening before Supply Chain Security Day.

This inaugural event will give attendees an opportunity to network in a more informal setting. At the same time, it will celebrate a major milestone: the 25th anniversary of CTPAT. Organizers will recognize the program’s lasting impact on supply chain security and its success in fostering collaboration between government and industry partners.

Furthermore, the gathering will provide another opportunity for professionals to strengthen relationships and exchange ideas outside the conference setting.

A Platform for Security, Trust, and Collaboration

Supply Chain Security Day remains an important event for professionals dedicated to protecting global commerce. At the same time, it helps build efficiency, trust, and stronger partnerships across the supply chain sector.

With active participation from organizations such as CTPAT and the addition of SCAN’s anniversary celebration, this year’s event promises valuable discussions, meaningful connections, and practical insights for attendees. Ultimately, the event reinforces the value of collaboration in addressing today’s security challenges and preparing for those ahead.
