AirBridgeCargo Airlines (ABC), part of Volga-Dnepr Group and one of the leaders in healthcare air transportations, has delivered yellow fever vaccines from Moscow Sheremetyevo International Airport (Russia) to Frankfurt (Germany) with further trucking to Liege (Belgium).
A 36-ton UNICEF shipment transportation was organized in partnership with ABC long-standing customer, DSV, which prepared over 1,000 special boxes to guarantee safe and intact delivery of sophisticated medicines. A complex delivery, which embraced several stakeholders, will be part of the immunization programme in Africa.
‘For the last five years, we have deepened our expertise in the transportation of healthcare products, with vaccines being of paramount importance to prolong the life of the world’s population and facilitate well-timed vaccination, especially for children. While yellow fever still stays a very common disease in Africa and South America, we are honoured to be part of the cold chain to prevent its further spread and support routine immunization programmes of the local population’, – said Nikolay Glushnev, General Director, AirBridgeCargo Airlines.
