In 2011, the Canadian Trucking Alliance commissioned an independent study that estimated cargo theft had a $5 billion impact on the Canadian economy. Today that estimated dollar value is significantly much higher since cargo theft rates have skyrocketed in the past eight years with the Greater Toronto Area (GTA) being the cargo theft capital of Canada. It is essential for shippers, manufacturers, and commercial transportation companies to implement cargo crime mitigation solutions to avoid being a victim. This presentation will provide an overview on the current problem and discuss security solutions that can help mitigate cargo crime.
