Camden, N.J., June 25, 2026 – NFI, a leading North American supply chain solutions provider, is the first logistics company to earn the Transported Asset Protection Association (TAPA) Freight Broker Security Requirements (FBSR) certification.
The certification requires documented controls across carrier onboarding and qualification, risk assessment, monitoring, security management, training, incident reporting, and continuous improvement. Together, these requirements create a structured, auditable framework for vetting and evaluating prospective carriers.
“Becoming the first to earn the TAPA FBSR certification represents a significant milestone in NFI’s commitment to advancing supply chain security,” said Kevin Johnson, Vice President of Corporate Security at NFI. “This certification gives our customers added confidence knowing that NFI is committed to protecting their freight at every step and across every mode.”
NFI leverages its corporate security team, which brings expertise in logistics, cybersecurity, investigations, law enforcement, and risk management to help curb theft. The team also partners with the FBI to share intelligence and respond to cyber threats and supports a real-time cargo theft prevention, reporting, and alerting platform.
Prioritizing theft protection and stronger risk management is critical, and is underscored by the recent U.S. Supreme Court’s decision in Montgomery v. Caribe Transport II, LLC, which confirmed that freight brokers can still face state-law negligent hiring claims tied to carrier selection as federal law does not preempt those claims.
NFI is committed to ensuring security and reliability across its transportation and logistics operations. NFI’s freight brokerage team conducts rigorous carrier vetting and qualification, ensuring cargo is entrusted only to carriers that consistently meet strict supply chain security standards.
