IJS GLOBAL JOINS U.S. CUSTOMS AND BORDER PROTECTION’S
TRADE PARTNERSHIP TO FIGHT TERRORISM

QUEENS, NY (March 2, 2006)—IJS Global Inc.®, a fast-growing international air and ocean freight forwarder, customs broker and non-vessel operating common carrier, said today it has signed on to participate in the U.S. Customs and Border Protection’s Trade Partnership Against Terrorism initiative (C-TPAT).

C-TPAT is a joint government-business initiative designed to build cooperative relationships that strengthen overall supply chain and border security. Through this initiative, CBP can provide the highest level of security through close cooperation with the ultimate owners of the supply chain – importers, carriers, brokers, warehouse operators and manufacturers.

“As we expand in the U.S. and beyond, we are always mindful that, in today’s world, free, frictionless commerce is possible only with a safe and secure global supply chain,” said John Gallahan, President and CEO, IJS Global. “Our involvement in C-TPAT sends a strong message to our customers that we are serious about, and committed to, ensuring the integrity of the IJS Global network.”

To participate in C-TPAT, businesses must apply and commit to conducting a comprehensive self-assessment of supply chain security using the C-TPAT security guidelines jointly developed by CBP and the trade community. Businesses applying for participation in C-TPAT also must submit a supply chain security profile questionnaire to CBP and develop and implement a program to enhance security throughout the supply chain in accordance with the C-TPAT guidelines.
