Pharma Air Freight
How a temperature-sensitive pharmaceutical supply chain achieved near-perfect reliability across 11,000 km.
The Challenge
A major Indian pharmaceutical manufacturer was expanding US distribution of temperature-sensitive generic medications. Their previous logistics arrangement resulted in 8% shipment delays and 2 cold-chain breaches in the prior year — each breach requiring full batch destruction worth $200K+.
They needed a logistics partner who could guarantee cold-chain integrity from Mumbai to US distribution centers while meeting FDA import compliance requirements and maintaining cost-effective air freight rates.
The Solution
Suaid Global implemented an end-to-end pharmaceutical logistics program:
Temperature-controlled air freight with active monitoring (2–8°C), GDP-compliant handling at every transfer point, FDA prior notice filing and customs pre-clearance, dedicated pharma-qualified warehouse staging in Miami, temperature excursion alerts with real-time corrective protocols, and monthly performance reporting with root cause analysis.
The Results
The pharma company expanded from 2 shipments per month to 8, and has since added a European distribution lane managed by Suaid Global. The zero-breach record has been maintained for 18 consecutive months.
Cold-chain logistics is non-negotiable in pharma. Suaid Global gave us the visibility and reliability we needed to scale our US operations with confidence.
