We organize information so you can make better decisions with less effort. It’s that simple.

NCBFAA’s national partnership with FloraTrace simplifies the challenges of risk associated with the UFLPA.  FloraTrace provides risk management tools for transparency, and risk transfer through Rezylient Trade Disruption Insurance, which covers Detention expenses.   With our partner, FloraTrace, NCBFAA members can now add Rezylient Trade Disruption Insurance for importers as an endorsement to a cargo policy.  

  • NCBFAA members: When your client completes an application, they receive a one-time Free Isotopic Test Kit and Origin Assessment Report (a value of $1000).  (Rezylient Insurance Agency is an MGA and can work with your insurance carrier brokers to add the endorsement to your client's cargo policy.)
  • Tailor a UFLPA Compliance strategy for your clients with Rezylient Trade Disruption Insurance protection.  Bring an innovative and timely benefit to your clients that have the risk of a UFLPA Detention for suspicion of forced labor.
