Continuing to carry pharmaceuticals
Pharma logistics is a thriving business: Lithuanian provider Girteka Logistics has passed its fifth annual good distribution practise (GDP) audit, scoring 96.45% following an independent assessment. The certificate will allow Girteka Logistics to continue carrying cargo for pharmaceutical customers. The certificate provides the basis not only for transporting but also storing pharmaceuticals for human and animal use.
In accordance with European Union (EU) guidelines, compliance with GDP ensures that the pharmaceuticals concerned are authorised for use within the EU and are stored in the right conditions at all times, including during the transportation process. The certificate will be valid until September 2023. In 2020, more than 4% of the company’s total full truck loads (FTL) transported pharmaceutical products. (sh)
