Transportation Crime Conference (February 27)
Whether it happens on the road or in your yard, cargo
theft is a very real and growing problem. Cargo theft not only
hurts carrier’s bottom lines but exposes their drivers and other
employees to potential injury or death. On February 27th, 2008, from
8:30 to 4:00 at the Toronto Congress Centre (650 Dixon Road) the Ontario
Trucking Association and MARSH Canada are co-hosting a full day conference on
the issue of vehicle and cargo theft. We’ve assembled a panel of leading
experts in the field on transportation crime who will discuss the best
strategies carriers can employ to help stop cargo theft from
hurting their business.
