Protecting supply chains against rising criminal attacks in all 9 provinces in South Africa
Emperor’s Palace Conference Centre, Johannesburg – 7 March 2023
Cargo crime in South Africa is a major and growing concern for international manufacturers and logistics service providers.
In the 18 months to June 2022, the TAPA EMEA Intelligence System (TIS) recorded 2,670 cargo thefts across all 9 South African provinces, including 2,236 truck hijackings.
Only 3.4% of these crimes reported financial loss data but these incidents alone produced losses of:
- 577 million rand (€31.7m) of goods stolen from supply chains in 546 days
- 109 million rand (€5.9m) – biggest single cargo theft
- 17,264,794 rand (€947,862) – average loss for major cargo crimes of 1.8m rand (€100K) or more
- 6,344,897 rand (€348,344)
This event is free of charge for TAPA EMEA members to attend and available to non-members for a delegate fee of 1,800 rand per delegate.
Additionally, on 8 March 2023, TAPA EMEA is also offering supply chain security stakeholders the opportunity to register for a morning session providing an Introduction to TAPA EMEA’s Supply Chain Security Standards.
We look forward to welcoming you.
