Last year, the Meadowlands Regional Chamber (MRC) introduced e-Certify, the online solution for processing Certificates of Origin for exporters/freight forwarders and endorsed by the American Chamber of Commerce Executives Association, to ease the time and expense companies must spend on paperwork to export their products outside of the USA. We offer it to make your job easier and your company more profitable, and as e-Certify has grown in popularity it has proven to be a major cost savings benefit and convenience for many of our members who need to ship and distribute their goods.
