In France, XPO Logistics has implemented this network alongside its existing infrastructure to ensure the timely delivery of healthcare products nationwide. The palletised distribution network enables XPO to guarantee the delivery of healthcare products within 24 to 48 hours throughout the country, in compliance with applicable regulations. The sector’s specific needs, such as the constraints of urban delivery, can be effectively addressed as well. XPO already has six CERTIPHARM-certified sites and plans to have a fully certified network.
This new offering complements XPO Logistics’ existing services tailored for healthcare, including temperature-controlled warehousing and specialized pharmaceutical transport. The company aims to expand its presence in the pharmaceutical market, projecting growth in line with industry forecasts.
“We are proud to expand our range of solutions with this new ambient temperature delivery service for healthcare products destined for pharmacies and hospitals. Our training for our teams, our fleet of vehicles and our expertise in urban last-mile delivery enable us to offer a high-performance service. We’ve stepped up our game in recent months to deliver even more for our customers, and it’s with some pride that we’re receiving positive feedback from them as they benefit from our enhanced services,” said Frédéric Aziron, director of less-than-truckload and last mile in France, XPO Logistics.
