September 17, 2021: On behalf of a leading pharmaceutical company, Bolloré Logistics Singapore arranged two part-charter flights holding eight temperature-controlled ULDs of pharmaceutical drugs weighing over 13,000 kilogrammes to Australia. The solution was made possible with the involvement of Bolloré Logistics Healthcare Hub that is located in the Free Trade Zone (FTZ) of Singapore.
Despite the tight air cargo capacity, Bollore’s partners Singapore Airlines and Envirotainer were able to resolve swiftly. With lockdowns in place, affected countries had no direct flight options. Thus, Bollore proposed a transit solution via Singapore.
Faced with air capacity shortage and restrictions on flow of goods across borders in times of Covid-19, reliability and flexibility is more crucial than ever in logistics. In this context, the customer faced a challenge to ship directly from US to Australia. It was understood that any delay would cause additional strain to the supply chain down the pike, ultimately impacting the patients.
Within Bollore’s Healthcare Hub, the team of pharma experts with full on knowledge were tasked to handle the goods with extra care to ensure product safety and integrity for the rest of the journey.
