CEVA Ground, the domestic road transport services division of CEVA Logistics in China, achieved the Transported Asset Protection Association TSR-2008 validation.
TAPA unites global manufacturers, logistics providers and freight carriers with the common aim of reducing losses from international supply chains. CEVA is the first global supply chain provider to be awarded the TAPA TSR validation in mainland China.
SGS Hong Kong Limited provided inspection and verification to ensure that services and systems meet required quality standards.
"At CEVA, we have always excelled in applying TAPA standards to our operations throughout the world. Being the first global supply chain company to achieve this validation for our domestic operations in China underscores our commitment to safety and TAPA standards," said Ditlev Blicher, CEVA's executive vice president for North Asia. "With the steady increase in domestic transportation volumes, the safeguarding of our customers' cargo is now more important than ever."
