Corey Rosenbusch, vice-president of the Global Cold Chain Alliance (GCCA), has been promoted to president and chief operating officer (COO) of GCCA and its core partners.
GCCA consists of four core partner associations: the International Association of Refrigerated Warehouses (IARW), World Food Logistics Organization (WFLO), International Refrigerated Transportation Association (IRTA), and the International Association for Cold Storage Construction (IACSC). Rosenbusch will serve as president and COO for all four core partners.
Rosenbusch’s promotion marks the beginning of a leadership transition for GCCA, as Bill Hudson transfers his responsibilities to Rosenbusch. Hudson, who has served as president and chief executive officer of GCCA for 30 years, will remain CEO until his retirement from GCCA in April 2014. He will stay active in the industry and serve as an ambassador for the organization beyond his 2014 retirement.
Rosenbusch has served GCCA for the past seven years as vice-president, overseeing government affairs, international programs, and membership services. Before joining the association, he served as the director of a Texas A&M University cold chain development project in Indonesia. He also worked with food industry executives in his role as president of the National FFA Organization.
As president and COO, Rosenbusch will work closely with association leaders to provide programs and services that assist members and strengthen the global cold chain.
“I am honored to have the opportunity to continue to serve GCCA and its core partners,” he said. “With the guidance of our leadership, we will continue to provide world-class education and training to our members while expanding the presence of GCCA on an international stage.”
