Kuehne+Nagel recently completed its third consecutive IATA CEIV Pharma certification of its entire air logistics healthcare network, becoming the first logistics company to achieve over 100 CEIV Pharma-certified stations.

The re-certification reinforces Kuehne+Nagel’s commitment to quality and its ability to meet the highest compliance and regulatory requirements for safer, secured, compliant and efficient pharmaceutical product handling in the air cargo supply chain.

Harsha Ranasinghe, SVP Global Head of Air Logistics Products and Services at Kuehne+Nagel commented: “In 2017, Kuehne+Nagel became the first to attain CEIV Pharma certification for its healthcare air network. Since then, we continue to collaborate with IATA to drive superior quality and compliance by setting new standards for pharmaceutical handling excellence within air freight.”

Kuehne+Nagel’s dedicated healthcare solutions for air logistics are part of the company’s global healthcare portfolio including multimodal transport options and contract logistics. Earlier this year, it announced its 3-year roadmap, of which healthcare is a key growth area.
