Nippon Express (NE) France, a local subsidiary of Tokyo-based Nippon Express, on May 19 obtained Good Distribution Practice (GDP) certification from the certification body Bureau Veritas Certification France.
The certificate will permit air and truck freight forwarding operations (including temporary storage services) at a company-owned warehouse located on the grounds of Paris Charles de Gaulle Airport, evidencing its compliance with GDP standards for the proper distribution of pharmaceuticals.
France being the home to pharmaceutical giants and numerous prominent pharmaceutical research organizations, has become a base for the development and manufacture of pharmaceutical products.
