Swiss WorldCargo’s ULD pharma network grows

Swiss WorldCargo now has 36 Qualified Envirotainer Provider (QEP) accredited stations, says the pharmaceutical cold chain solutions provider.
The carrier’s network consists of QEP Basic, Advanced and Expert levels, with 31 stations receiving the QEP Advanced accreditation, the highest such number in the industry.
Its Zurich hub has also recently been recognized as a QEP Expert station, based on its GDP compliance and CEIV certification. ​
Swiss WorldCargo head of vertical industry pharmaceutical and healthcare, Susanne Wellauer, said: “This is another very important milestone for our pharma road-map. It clearly shows the expertise of our teams and our ability to handle Envirotainer shipments in accordance with the industry standard Goods Distribution Practice.
"The QEP expert level of our Zurich hub is a clear evidence of our premium SWISS quality that extends through the whole Swiss WorldCargo network of 31 QEP advanced stations.”
Envirotainer launched the QEP program over ten years ago to promote safe handling of pharmaceuticals.
