Our Story

Ellen Smith has had a long and effective in-house career leading compliance teams, wherein her vision has always been to provide tailored trade compliance solutions to effectively operationalize trade compliance, mitigating risk and minimizing disruption. While in-house, Ellen continuously searched for practical, effective, and economical program advice that could transform operational processes into a functioning program without reinventing the wheel. Looking for a partner that understood both the complexities of global and jurisdictional supply chain risk and regulatory exposure, as well as her practical business needs, was an endless search. As a result, the idea of Trade Compliance Consulting was born! A one-stop shop for your trade compliance needs.

Now, that experience comes to you!  ​
