We're now an associate member of the Bonded Warehousekeepers Association

This week, we’ve received the good news that we’ve been accepted to join The Bonded Warehousekeepers Association (BWA) as an associate member. We’re pleased to join their esteemed ranks of producers, warehouses, technology providers and supply chain members, all of whom are committed to advancing best practices in excise and customs.

It’s a key milestone to have Proof 8 recognised by the leading industry body for Bonded Warehouses.

What does it mean to be a member of the BWA?

Well, the BWA carries a lot of influence and responsibility in representing all of its members in key government initiatives relating to customs and excise warehouse facilities.

Sitting on a number of task forces such as the Joint Alcohol and Tobacco Consultation Group (JATCG) and the Joint Alcohol Anti-Fraud group (JAAF), the BWA actively participates with HMRC and is instrumental in formulating and implementing UK and European legislation.

It’s fair to say we share a like-minded purpose.

Like us, the BWA strives to facilitate better communication and transparency in our sector. They too are calling to put frameworks and best practice initiatives in place that solve real world issues, such as the prevalence of cask and alcohol fraud as discussed in this 

Rob Hollands, CEO of Proof 8 says, ‘Joining The Bonded Warehousekeepers Association holds great significance for us. Not only does it form part of our long-term plan to support the spirits sector with the fundamental building blocks for a more transparent, digital future, it also opens doors for collaboration with other businesses with similar ambitions and commitment to better governance.

We look forward to collaborating with other BWA members to discuss the big topics on everyone’s agenda, as we put strategies in place that move our industry forward.'
