NIPPON EXPRESS (CHINA) FIRST JAPANESE COMPANY ACQUIRES GDP CERTIFICATION IN CHINA
KUALA LUMPUR, May 17 (Bernama) -- Nippon Express (China) Co Ltd (NE China), a local subsidiary of Nippon Express Co Ltd has obtained Good Distribution Practice (GDP) certification for its Shanghai Pudong Airport CFS.
According to a statement, the certification makes it the first Japanese company in China to evidence its compliance with GDP standards for the proper distribution of pharmaceuticals in its short-term storage services.
China's pharmaceutical market, the world's second largest, is enjoying steady expansion driven by an aging society, increasing per-capita income and consequently rising medical spending, and further growth is anticipated in future.
The GDP certification obtained covers a full range of import arrangements extending from the arrival of import air cargo at the airport to customs clearance and bonded outbound shipment.
NE China uses a dedicated refrigerated facility belonging to Eastern Air Logistics Co Ltd, offering temperature-controlled storage in two temperature ranges: 2 C-8 C (refrigerated) and 15 C-25 C (room temperature).
Nippon Express will continue enhancing its services to meet ever more sophisticated and diverse pharmaceutical logistics needs, and strengthening initiatives on behalf of the pharmaceutical industry, positioned as a priority industry in the Company's management plan.
