Supporting health programmes beyond Covid-19


As part of the UN agency vaccination programme Volga-Dnepr Group and the Denmark-based Scan Global Logistics worked together to deliver 180 cbm of vaccines and medical supplies to Turkmenistan.

 

The cargo contained vital diphtheria/hepatitis and BCG vaccine doses as well as clinical/medical supplies. Amid the Covid-19 pandemic ongoing immunisation programmes have become particularly important.

 

The consolidated cargo was delivered from all parts of Europe to Leipzig airport for the flight departures. These were operated on two different aircraft types, an IL-76TD-90VD from Volga-Dnepr Airlines and a B737-400SF from Atran Airlines.

 

Ragnar Dalen, regional CEO of Continental Europe air & ocean of Scan Global Logistics: "We were very happy to partner with Volga-Dnepr Group."
