International healthcare company, Sanofi, has partnered with Kuehne+Nagel to improve the efficiency of its pharma supply chain in Turkey.
Kuehne+Nagel has been tasked with managing a facility in Tuzla to enhance the efficiency of processes related to warehousing, handling and value-added services such as serialisation and inking.
Currently, Sanofi operates a 11,000-square-metre facility equipped with temperature-controlled rooms (15-25°C), cold rooms (2-8°C), restricted access zones and quarantine areas. With a storage capacity of up to 4,200 pallets of healthcare and consumer health products, the facility ensures timely delivery to patients across Turkey.
“Our purpose at Sanofi is to improve people’s lives around the world, by chasing the miracles of science,” said Sanofi Eurasia MCO Lead, Cem Öztürk.
“In line with this mission, we sought a trusted partner to deliver reliable 3PL warehousing logistics services, allowing us to focus on our core business.
“Sanofi’s successful collaborations with Kuehne+Nagel in other countries reinforced our confidence in choosing them as our partner in Turkey”
Kuehne+Nagel Turkey Managing Director, Matthias Blan, said he is thrilled to take on the operation of Sanofi’s facility in Tuzla.
