Company handles temperature-sensitive goods in an ultramodern cargo facility at Karachi Airport
Gerry’s dnata, the leading ground services provider in Pakistan, has been awarded the Good Distribution Practice (GDP) certification for the safe and reliable pharmaceutical handling services at the company’s state-of-the-art facility in Karachi.
Gerry’s dnata handles temperature-sensitive goods in an ultramodern cargo facility at Jinnah International Airport (KHI), facilitating the independent adjustment of the temperature in each holding room to suit the needs of the product.
Pharmaceuticals and vaccines are given priority loading and unloading to ensure that they are moved quickly with minimised temperature fluctuation. Gerry’s dnata’s handling team also receives specialised training for the handling of such niche products.
“This accreditation demonstrates our ability to move these products under the strictest international standards, providing world-class safety and quality to our customers and their customers,” noted Syed Haris Raza, Vice President, Gerry’s dnata.
Gerry’s dnata opened its new, state-of-the-art cargo centre in Karachi in 2019. The 72,000 square foot facility is equipped with the latest technologies, including an Automated Storage and Retrieval System (ASRS), ensuring safe and efficient handling and storage of all types of cargo, including temperature-sensitive goods.
