Business Efforts to Combat Illicit Trade and Retail Crime

A sharp uptick of crime and violence throughout Chicago in recent years has left various businesses to defend against organized illicit trade and retail theft operations. To protect workers, customers, and businesses from this problematic trend, the Chicagoland Chamber recently supported and helped pass legislation to address the issue. While ongoing efforts hope to eradicate organized retail crime and illegal trade, businesses must remain vigilant and educated on current trends.

Join the Chicagoland Chamber of Commerce as we welcome Matt Albence of United to Safeguard America from Illegal Trade to discuss the initiative’s efforts to combat nationwide and local illicit trade and learn how your business can better protect your employees, customers, and community.
