IN-TRANSIT CARGO CRIME IMPACTING THE RETAIL SUPPLY CHAIN John Tabor1 National Retail Systems, Inc. ABSTRACT Surveys of retail security directors show that almost half of those polled had been the victims of a supply- chain disruption directly related to cargo theft. This is a significant increase from just five years ago. In order to fully understand the issue of cargo theft, retailers need to know why it exists, who is perpetrating it, how risk can be reduced, and ultimately how to react to a loss. This article explores a number of dimensions of the issue, and offers several suggestions for mitigating the risk and dealing with theft after it occurs. INTRODUCTION That said, remember that virtually 100 percent of the merchandise in retail stores is delivered by truck. Surveys of retail security directors showed that In many cases the only two preventative measures almost half of those polled had been the victims of a put in place to secure that same merchandise in supply-chain disruption directly related to cargo transit is a key to the tractor and a seal on the rear theft.

Promoting Logistics Development in Rural Areas
Promoting Logistics Development in Rural Areas Logistics plays an important role in agricultural production and supply-chain management, ultimately enhancing food safety and quality. Improvements in rural logistics help farmers to harvest and market crops more e ciently; and by facilitating communication, they serve to expand the markets for agricultural products. While recognizing the rapidly changing rural landscape in the People’s Republic of China, the distribution of goods is still impeded, and the quality of services poor. This study is part of the Asian Development Bank’s initiative to support and promote the development of the agriculture sector and establish e cient rural–urban synergies. Read how the private and public sectors can improve and promote logistics development in rural areas. About the Asian Development Bank ADB’s vision is an Asia and Paciﬁ c region free of poverty. Its mission is to help its developing member countries reduce poverty and improve the quality of life of their people. Despite the region’s many successes, it remains home to a large share of the world’s poor. ADB is committed to reducing poverty through inclusive economic growth, environmentally sustainable growth, and regional integration. Based in Manila, ADB is owned by members, including from the region. Its main instruments for helping its developing member countries are policy dialogue, loans, equity investments, guarantees, grants, and technical assistance.

Shipbuilding
Shipbuilding A promising rst half, an uncertain second one 2018 started briskly in the wake of 2017. In the rst half of the year, newbuilding orders were placed at a rate of about 10m dwt per month. However the pace dropped in the second half, as owners grappled with a rise in newbuilding prices and growing uncertainty over the IMO 2020 deadline. Regardless, newbuilding orders rose to 95.5m dwt in 2018 versus 83.1m dwt in 2017. Demand for bulkers, container carriers and specialised ships increased, while for tankers it receded, re ecting low freight rates and poor sentiment. Thanks to this additional demand, shipbuilders succeeded in raising newbuilding prices by about 10%. This enabled them to pass on some of the additional building costs resulting from higher steel prices, new regulations and increased pressure from marine suppliers, who have also been struggling since 2008.
