Schiphol Pharma Gateway praised for joining IATA's CEIV scheme
THE Cargo Community at Amsterdam Airport Schiphol has been recognised by the International Air Cargo Association (IATA) for their contribution, support and endorsement of its Centre of Excellence for Independent Validators in Pharmaceutical Logistics (CEIV Pharma) programme.
IATA vice president Nick Careen presented the certificate to Amsterdam Airport Schiphol cargo chief Jonas van Stekelenburg Schiphol during the World Cargo Symposium, reported American Journal of Transportation.
'Having Amsterdam Airport Schiphol, Europe's third largest freight airport, and Air Cargo Netherlands, one of the region's largest operators, support the CEIV Pharma Programme is a significant boost for meeting shippers' expectations in terms of standardisation and transparency across the supply chain in the region,' said IATA cargo chief Glyn Hughes.
Pharma Gateway Amsterdam (PGA) was formed one year ago with the objective of providing a transparent and qualified pharma air cargo supply chain. On becoming a PGA member, organisations are required to become CEIV certified and are provided with support and guidance throughout the process.
All 13 members of PGA are now working to develop an 'early warning system' as a solution for pharma shippers who are asking for clarity in the pharma supply chain.
The 13 members of PGA are: Cyberfreight, GEFCO, VCK Logistics, Yusen Logistics, Swissport, Dnata, Worldwide Flight Services (WFS), Air France-KLM, De Jong Special Services, Jan de Rijk Logistics, Nouwens Bread, DJ Middleton, and SGS.
