How To Avoid Pharma/Bio Cargo Theft

By JJ Coughlin, VP, LoJack SCI

If your job is even remotely related to the transport of your company’s pharmaceutical or biologics products, you need to be familiar with the Supply Chain-Information Sharing and Analysis Center (SC-ISAC). That’s because this organization has been collecting and analyzing cargo-theft data for industries just like yours since 2005. And don’t be naive — thieves are targeting your products.

What you need to do is use the insights gleaned from the SC-ISAC’s data to better understand how cargo is targeted and then drive that awareness to your logistic providers. Having such a proactive, preventative approach to your supply-chain logistics is essential to avoiding the costly recovery fees associated with stolen product and equipment.
