The International Air Cargo Association (TIACA) has developed a tripartite Shippers’ Advisory Council, involving the National Industrial Transportation League, European Shippers’ Council and the Japan Shippers’ Council.
Peter Gatti, director of policy for the NIT League, will serve as the group’s first chair. The council will be chaired traditionally by a shipper. The council plans to exchange information industry-wide through fax, e-mail, mail and bulletins. The group will also survey shippers internationally on practices and requirements. Already TIACA and the NIT League have conducted a survey of U.S. shippers.
