The Growing Significance of Security Challenges in the Cold Chain

As pharmaceutical supply chains continue to grow globally, they are naturally exposed to greater risks that could compromise the integrity of products. The risks of theft, counterfeiting and diversion continue to challenge the global biopharma supply chain, and security issues remain a priority in an increasingly complex and globalized environment.

The industry has responded to security threats by implementing countermeasures and developing new technologies to reduce counterfeiting and thefts. However, threats still exist as thieves and counterfeiters adapt and evolve to the industry’s response. These threats will be a major topic of discussion at the 13th Cold Chain GDP & Temperature Management Logistics Summit - Canada. In advance of the Summit, Andrea Charles of Cold Chain IQ looks into the major security challenges and how to overcome them.
