LOGISTICS & WAREHOUSING
Pharmaceutical and technology delivery needs are generally very different, but both need security and accuracy, with deliveries either costing hundreds or thousands of dollars, or being a critical and lifesaving resource.
Cencora, an American drug wholesale and distribution company, combines its global capabilities and local expertise in order to deliver vital treatments and care to people around the world. With a global network, it can safely and securely store products in its warehouses, before navigating time-sensitive delivery, using innovative solutions to secure and grow the pharma supply chain. It offers endto-end support across the healthcare spectrum, working closely with its pharma partners to understand the challenges they need to overcome in order to make a positive impact.
“ We see pharma companies homing in on what they do best- developing and commercialising their products; and 3PL providers serve as trusted partners to ensure that the activities outside of this are executed perfectly,” explains Alina.
“ Pharma and biotech companies invest heavily in drug development and commercialisation, so they need confidence knowing their efforts will not be compromised by supply chain failures that prevent products from reaching patients – making a reliable 3PL partner inherently more critical.”
In pharmaceutical supply chains, a reliable partner with strong cold-chain capabilities is vital, as products need to be carefully temperature controlled in order to avoid spoilage.
