Leading the Charge for Safer Supply Chains: FET Logistics & TAPA EMEA

At FET Logistics, we are proud to see our very own Harry Hughes, Regional Lead for TAPA EMEA, take to the stage at the Retail Risk Forum in Leicester, UK. Harry participated in a vital roundtable discussion, "Minimising Cargo Losses – Smarter Standards and Safer Supply Chains," hosted by Retail Knowledge. This forum gathered key industry experts to address the persistent threat of cargo crime, theft, fraud, and supply chain disruption that impacts retailers and logistics providers globally.

TAPA EMEA: Driving Industry Security

Harry's insights highlighted the critical role of TAPA EMEA in establishing more resilient and compliant supply chains. TAPA is instrumental in setting the standard through:

  • Intelligence: Keeping members ahead of the curve on evolving threats.
  • Industry Standards: Creating essential benchmarks for security, resilience, and compliance.
  • Training Solutions: Equipping logistics professionals with the expertise to protect high-value assets.

By leveraging these tools, we can significantly reduce losses for retailers and ensure that goods—especially time-critical and high-value cargo—reach their destination securely and on schedule.

A Day of Collaboration

The event was also an opportunity for Harry to reconnect with key partners in the industry, including Maple Fleet Services, one of TAPA EMEA’s 2025 Premier Partners, and Nick Long from SNAP. These connections reflect the importance of collaboration in building safer and more efficient supply chains.

Why This Matters to FET Logistics

For FET Logistics, the fight against cargo crime and supply chain vulnerabilities is central to our mission. As specialists in pharmaceutical, clinical trial, and secure high-value logistics, we know that safety and compliance cannot be compromised.

  • Our QMS combines ISO9001:2015 with GDP and TAPA security standards, ensuring we meet and exceed industry expectations.
  • Every shipment benefits from a full audit trail, real-time tracking, and temperature-controlled environments to protect product integrity.
  • We continually raise standards to deliver peace of mind to our clients, knowing their cargo is handled with the utmost security and professionalism.

Harry’s leadership role within TAPA EMEA reinforces FET’s commitment to advancing safer supply chains, not only within pharmaceuticals but across the logistics industry as a whole.
