Guest feature: Supply chain security

Logners founder Asad Kanaan reveals his views on national supply chain security regimes, and why the advent of these schemes will be advantageous to Middle Eastern companies in the long term. 

The dawn of the 21st century brought a new meaning to the concept of supply chain security, causing many companies to shift their efforts from internal security to a more integrated global approach covering end-to-end supply chain partners. This new direction extends security from the traditional asset protection to include the application of a management system that prevents the introduction of unauthorised goods, people and weapons into the supply chain.

What’s in it for the companies? Trade facilitation benefits.
