St Louis, MO (PRWEB) - Range Logistics has joined CargoNet ® to bolster its ability to mitigate cargo risk for their clients. CargoNet helps prevent cargo theft and improves recovery rates through secure and controlled information sharing among theft victims, their business partners, and law enforcement officials. CargoNet uses a national database and information sharing system managed by crime analysts and subject matter experts. CargoNet is a division of Verisk Crime Analytics, a Verisk Analytics (Nasdaq:VRSK) company.

The FBI estimates the annual loss in cargo theft ranges between $15-30 billion. To help combat this growing issue, Range Logistics will leverage CargoNet’s extensive network of law enforcement agencies and shared data to further strengthen their overall cargo security plan for each client.

“Range Logistics recognizes the importance of taking a proactive approach to the growing issue of cargo theft, and we’re excited to support their commitment to the cause,” said Anthony Canale, Vice President of Verisk Crime Analytics.
