TAPA considers itself an internationally recognised leader in the fight against cargo crime. Neumann’s responsibility will be in growing TAPA’s reputation as the world’s leading end-to-end supply chain resilience association and to deliver more risk management solutions for TAPA’s growing membership of manufacturers, logistics service providers and other supply chain security stakeholders.
Commented TAPA EMEA Vice Chair, Jason Breakwell: ““Having decided to create this new post, Thorsten was always the clear choice to take the role. He has outstanding security expertise and is highly respected by our members, partners and within the Government departments and regulatory bodies we are increasingly working alongside. Above all, he has a passion and vision for TAPA that will build the profile and growth we need to future-proof our Association for our members.
