FedEx Corp. has achieved a major milestone in its healthcare logistics journey, securing 30 IATA CEIV Pharma certifications across its global air hubs and cargo handling facilities.
This accomplishment positions FedEx among the top global transportation providers with one of the industry’s largest networks recognized for excellence in pharmaceutical handling. This underscores a commitment to precision and quality and is a testament to the capabilities leveraged by FedEx Life Sciences in transporting critical, temperature-sensitive shipments for the healthcare industry.
“The pharmaceutical industry relies on air transport to ensure that time-sensitive and temperature-controlled medicines and therapies reach the doctors and patients who depend on them,” said Brendan Sullivan, global head of cargo at IATA. “We are pleased to see FedEx earn the industry’s trusted mark of quality and excellence in pharmaceutical handling while continuing to expand its global network.”
“We are proud to reach this important milestone, but our work does not stop here,” said Nick Gennari, president of FedEx Healthcare and Life Sciences. “This achievement represents another step in our journey to build one of the world’s most advanced healthcare logistics networks. Quality will remain a centerpiece of our ongoing FedEx Life Sciences expansion, and we look forward to our continued work with the IATA.”
