Nippon express USA obtains GDP certification for Los Angeles, New York CFS

KUALA LUMPUR, March 8 -- Nippon Express USA Inc (NX USA), a group company of Nippon Express Holdings Inc, has obtained Good Distribution Practice (GDP) certification for forwarding operations.

The operations are inclusive of temporary storage, at temperature-controlled facilities in its CFS near Los Angeles International Airport (effective Nov 23, 2021) and its CFS near John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK Airport) in New York City (effective Dec 20, 2021), evidencing its compliance with GDP standards for the proper distribution of pharmaceuticals.

The area of Southern California centred on Los Angeles has become a hub for pharmaceutical development hosting numerous research institutes.

NX USA's Los Angeles Branch has its own CFS near Los Angeles International Airport, a West Coast gateway to the US, fully equipped with a temperature-controlled 24 m2 facility dedicated to pharmaceutical products and capable of both refrigerated (2C - 8C) and constant-temperature (15C - 25C) storage.

The NX Group's international temperature-controlled transport services will be combined with temporary storage functions at the GDP-certified warehouse to provide customers with a safe and high-quality pharmaceutical logistics platform, according to a statement.

Meanwhile, the US Northeast is home to a large number of companies involved in the pharmaceutical and medical device businesses, and demand in those sectors is expected to rise in future.

NX USA's New York Branch has its own warehouse near JFK Airport that is fully equipped with a temperature-controlled 24 m2 facility dedicated to pharmaceutical products and capable of both refrigerated (2C - 8C) and constant-temperature (15C - 25C) storage.

This enables the Branch to provide a safe and high-quality pharmaceutical distribution platform by operating regular shuttle trucking services that deliver cargo to other Nippon Express locations across the Northeast as early as the following morning.

The NX Group, formerly the Nippon Express Group which renamed its corporate group name following transition to a holding company system in January, will continue stepping up its initiatives in the pharmaceutical industry, identified as a priority industry in the Group's Business Plan, and globally enhancing and expanding its services to meet the increasingly sophisticated and diversified pharmaceutical transport needs of its customers.
