C-TPAT is a government/business initiative to increase cargo security while improving the flow of trade. Seven of America’s Fortune 500 companies helped Customs develop the program: BP America, Daimler-Chrysler, Ford, General Motors, Motorola, Sara Lee, and Target. More than 80 companies have already signed C-TPAT agreements with the Customs Service, and 100 more applications are pending.
