Scan Global Logistics has executed a dedicated air charter operation to transport temperature-sensitive pharmaceutical cargo from Mumbai to Lagos, ensuring compliance and cold chain integrity amid regulatory delays.<\/p>\n

The shipment comprised 330 pallets weighing 46,999.85 kg of medicines requiring strict temperature control within a 15\u201325\u00b0C range. The cargo, prepared in India for a customer\u2019s aid programmes, faced a key challenge as relief cargo permits typically take three to four weeks to obtain, while the shipper was under pressure to free up warehouse space.<\/p>\n

To address this, the company mobilised GDP-certified trucks and repositioned the entire shipment to Mumbai within three days. The cargo was then stored in a secure, temperature-controlled, GDP-compliant facility near the airport for the full permit waiting period, ensuring pharmaceutical integrity and regulatory adherence.<\/p>\n

“Once approval came through, we were ready. With capacity tight, we secured a full B747-400F charter (55 MT built across 39 ULDs) and uplifted the entire shipment in a single lot,” stated the Nordic based forwarder in a social media post. <\/p>\n

The operation enabled compliant storage, immediate readiness for dispatch and uninterrupted delivery of critical medicines, underscoring the importance of integrated air charter and cold chain capabilities in humanitarian logistics.<\/p>\n
