Rosenbusch promoted to President and CEO of Global Cold Chain Alliance

Corey Rosenbusch was named President and CEO of the Global Cold Chain Alliance (GCCA) at the conclusion of the 123rd IARW-WFLO Convention & Expo, which took place from April 26-30 in San Diego, California. He had been serving as GCCA President and COO.

In November 2012, Rosenbusch and his predecessor Bill Hudson, who served as GCCA President and CEO for 32 years, embarked upon a 16-month leadership transition, in which relationships and responsibilities were transferred. Hudson will now assume the position of President Emeritus.

“Rosenbusch has more than demonstrated his capacity and vision,” said Tom Poe, Chairman of the International Association of Refrigerated Warehouses (IARW), the largest of the four Core Partners of GCCA. “His diverse international background, knowledge of our industry, and leadership skills will take us forward into what I know will be a strong future.”

Rosenbusch has been with GCCA for eight years, overseeing government affairs, international programs, and membership services. Previously, 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. Rosenbusch holds a Masters of Education degree in international development from Harvard University, and a Bachelors of Science degree in Agricultural Education from Texas A&M University.

In his new role as President Emeritus, Bill Hudson will work in an advisory role to ensure that GCCA continues to grow and serve as the global leader for all sectors of the cold chain.
