Celebrity chef Jamie Oliver of The Jamie Oliver Group has asked his 10.5 million #Instagram followers to be on the look-out for 22 tonnes of #cheese #stolen from a London cheesemaker. The 950 clothbound cheeses, reportedly worth some €360,000, were stolen after fraudsters reportedly posed as a major French #retailer. Thefts like these get a lot of high-profile attention but, sadly, they are not as rare as they seem. #food and #drink #supplychains face a constant threat of cargo #crime and given the high volumes of even low-cost goods that can be onboard a #truck or in a #warehouse, the loss value of single incident can easily be six figures or more. Food and drink goods are very sought-after by criminals because they are easy and quick to sell-on to buyers looking for lower priced products, particularly as #supermarket prices continue to rise. And, by its very nature, food and drink is also consumed quickly and leaves little evidence when it comes to investigating a theft. Our industry Association was formed by businesses looking to minimise losses from their supply chains from cargo theft and we help them achieve this through incident #intelligence, insights, training, and security standards to protect #facilities and #trucking operations.    With cargo thefts of all types of goods in #Europe alone estimated to cost businesses over €8 billion a year, this is a big and growing challenge for #manufacturers, #producers, and #transport and #logistics providers. We’re here to help any businesses that want to learn more about #cargocrime and how to build #supplychainresilience. Contact us at info@tapaemea.org #jamieoliver #foodindustry #crime

We are proud to say that after officially launching our #tapaemea 2025 Premier Partner programme two days ago, we already have our first Partners signed up for next year. Do you want to join them?    2025 is going to be a very special and important milestone year for the Transported Asset Protection Association (TAPA) as we celebrate the 25th #anniversary of our launch in the Europe, Middle East & Africa (EMEA) region. This achievement will be recognised by our Industry Association throughout the year and celebrated at our 25th Anniversary Annual Conference.   A key reason #manufacturers and #logistics Service Providers join TAPA EMEA is to learn more about #security #risks to their #supplychains and to connect with leading providers of #supplychainsecurity products and services to help increase their supply chain resilience.   The TAPA EMEA 2025 Premier Partner programme is a unique opportunity which will enable up to 15 leaders in supply chain security #products and #services to stand out from the crowd.   Our Premier Partners enjoy a unique package of year-round benefits to promote their #brands and showcase their products and services to an engaged audience of supply chain security users and buyers. This includes web branding, exhibition space, advertorials, and advertisements, and more, at TAPA EMEA events and in our publications across 2025.   To request a copy of our 2025 Premier Partner brochure highlighting our full package of benefits and costs, contact us now at info@tapaemea.org   Places in our 2025 Premier Partner programme are available on a first come, first served basis. #taparized #securityprofessionals

2025 is going to be a big year for TAPA EMEA as we #celebrate the 25th #anniversary of our Association’s launch in the Europe, Middle East & Africa region. As part of our celebrations, I am delighted to announce we will be hosting our TAPA EMEA 25th Anniversary Annual #Conference at the magnificent CCD Congress Centre in #Dusseldorf on 9 & 10 April 2025. This venue provides us with an amazing conference auditorium plus large, well-equipped networking and #exhibition spaces to allow us to optimise our 2 days together as we prepare to welcome our biggest-ever delegate audience. PLEASE SAVE THE DATE – DON’T MISS OUT! We are also announcing our Annual Conference location and date now to allow you to book your hotel accommodation and to select from the great choice of hotels close to the CCD Congress Centre. Please note - As our 2025 Annual Conference is in a specialist Congress Centre, #tapaemea will not be partnering with a specific hotel. It will be the responsibility of all delegates to book their own accommodation directly with the hotel of their choice. We, therefore, encourage you to book your accommodation as soon as possible. You will find Dusseldorf has excellent hotels with attractive room rates to suit every budget, especially if you book early. Registration for the conference will open in January 2025 and all TAPA EMEA will be advised when it is time to book your delegate places. This is going to be an amazing #TAPARIZED event – so we hope you’ll be there to join us. See you in Dusseldorf! For now, please #savethedate #tapa #germany #cargocrime #annualconference  

As an industry Association fighting #crime, we are fully aware of the tremendous crime prevention and investigation work carried out by #lawenforcement agencies across the EMEA region. We also appreciate the risks law enforcement officers face in their field of operations.   In recognition of this, last week at our #cargo #security conference in Madrid, organised in partnership with ADSI Asociación Directivos Seguridad Integral, Spain’s national association of #securityprofessionals – we were proud to make a donation to the Association for Orphans of Guardia Civil.   This will be used to support its outstanding work welcoming and educating the children of deceased members of Guardia Civil .   Thank you to General de Brigada D. Moisés González Sesma from Guardia Civil, vice-president of Associación Pro Huérfanos de la Guardia Civil for joining our event to accept TAPA EMEA’s donation from Ap Boom, Chief Financial & Compliance Officer, and Filipe Joel de Almeida our Regional Lead for #Portugal & #Spain. #lawenforcementagencies #guardiacivil #tapaemea
