In 2020, stolen goods from warehouses made up 14% of all global cargo theft. Thieves looking for easy profit have shifted more focus on warehouses, fulfillment centers and distribution centers, which are now seen as prime targets. This ever-increasing problem stems from many factors. One such contributing element is the fact that these crimes are seen as low-risk, high-reward since they carry minor criminal penalties.
Another concerning factor for businesses is that the stolen cargo is hard to track, with less than 20% being recovered. As a result of these rampant criminal actions, the United States alone sees a loss of $15 to $30 billion each year. However, break ins and external theft aren’t the only reason to boost a company’s loss prevention practices. Internal theft is also on the rise, with 90% of all significant theft losses being contributed to employees.
