Chair for software group

[ December 19, 2013   //   Chris ]

Gordon Tutt (right) has taken over from Ken Gower (left) as the chair of the Association of Freight Software Suppliers (AFSS). He is only the third chair for the AFSS; Brian Friday was the original holder when the Association was formed in 1993. Ken Gower has been chairman of the AFSS for the past eight years.

The Association brings together and represents nearly 30 of the leading suppliers of software to the freight and transportation industry and also represents members on the main HMRC Joint Customs Consultative Committee (JCCC). It also plays an active role in various working groups keeping an eye on any developments affecting EU Customs procedures, and cargo security issues will have an impact on software development.

Membership is open to any company providing software or related services to companies within the fields of freight, transportation, warehousing and international trade.
