Cold chain packaging and logistics provider expands GDP-compliant bonded warehousing services.
Logistics4Pharma, a pharmaceutical cold chain packaging, storage, warehousing, and logistics provider, recently revealed that it had completed relocation to a larger bonded warehouse in Kelsterbach, Germany, in April 2023, while simultaneously expanding the range of services.
This builds off the momentum from last October’s news, when the company announced an investment in ultra-deep-freeze (UDF) warehousing for temperatures as low as -80°C, along with the introduction of its good distribution practice (GDP)-compliant bonded warehouse services.
“With our bonded status, international customers are no longer compelled to immediately nationalize pharmaceutical shipments intended for European markets and can do so only after their products are sold to specific customers. Our proximity to Frankfurt Airport also contributes to reducing the environmental footprint of airfreight shipments” notes Julius von Pfeil, Logistics4Pharma ‘s head of supply chain and finance. “Where needed, we can assist our customers without third-party agent brokers, eliminating the risk of sharing sensitive customer data such as invoices with external parties and streamlining operations by having a single point of contact overseeing all imports, incoming goods, and storage processes up to the final dispatch.”
