Why Supply Chain Security matters and how Mainfreight protects your freight?

What is Supply Chain Security?

Supply chain security refers to the measures and processes put in place to protect goods as they move through the supply chain, from origin to destination. It involves safeguarding cargo against theft, tampering, terrorism and other risks that can disrupt the flow of goods. These measures include secure facilities, vetted team members, compliance with international regulations and advanced tracking systems.

Why is it important that your freight forwarder has these measures in place?

When you entrust your goods to a freight forwarder, you’re relying on them to ensure your cargo arrives safely and on time. Without security protocols, shipments can face delays, financial losses or even legal complications. A trusted freight forwarder with strong security practices minimises these risks, giving you peace of mind and protecting your reputation.
