Santos International, a family-owned business deeply rooted in the federally licensed U.S. customs brokerage industries, proudly commemorates its 50th anniversary. For five decades, Santos International has been a stalwart partner to a great array of fresh produce companies. One notable demonstration of this leadership is in successfully advocating for the return of significant amounts of federal duties incorrectly imposed on the importation of Mexican cantaloupes and limes, showcasing the company's commitment to its clients.
Founded in 1973 by Jimmy Santos, who served as the original broker, the company later welcomed Thelma Santos as its second licensed broker. The company underwent further development with the return of Jimmy and Thelma's sons, Edward, Carlos and Mark, after they completed their college education. With a sense for continuous innovation, adaptation and implementation, the sons ensured that the company not only weathered the challenges of the dynamic global trade landscape but that it thrived in the customs brokerage sector.
Santos International will host a series of events throughout the year, expressing gratitude to clients, partners, and employees who have played an integral role in the company's success.
"Personalization, innovation and creativity are the cornerstones of our company," said Mark Santos, partner. "When you work with us, you engage directly with the principals of the company. Our hands-on, service-focused team ensures timely release, fast problem resolution and seamless logistical operations."
Santos International's understanding of customer needs and communication when dealing with customs regulations, classifications, tariff issues, valuations and free trade agreements saves clients from red tape and costly penalties. The commitment to guiding clients through these complexities is evident in the expertise of its licensed customs brokers.
"We are not just customs brokers; we are partners in your success," added Jimmy Santos. "Our years of experience uniquely position us to ensure your cargo moves across borders efficiently, timely, and safely."
To celebrate this milestone, Santos International will host a series of events throughout the year, expressing gratitude to clients, partners and employees who have played an integral role in the company's success.
