The pressure of cost reduction, cool chain reliability, adequate awareness to all stakeholders in the supply chain and readiness with the increasingly dynamic and demanding regulatory environment are the key challenges that needs to be addressed,” he added while discussing on the panel discussion of the event on the first day.

During the session, new trends in LSH market, the constant evolution of new technologies and best practices as well as the role of 3PL service providers were discussed.

Customer Connect

The event also gave an opportunity to the sponsors to have their own “networking area” in the form of small booth.

Although the networking area was limited to six square meters, DACHSER India utilized the full opportunity to promote the brand DACHSER, the stall was the highlight of the event, which helped gaining good traction and attracted a good  number of visitors to enquire about the company’s entire portfolio, air and sea logistics and DACHSER expertise in handling Pharma, Life Science & Healthcare products.

The significance of achieving the certification of Center of Excellence for Independent Validators in Pharmaceutical Logistics (CEIV Pharma) for Hyderabad and Mumbai branch was also discussed and appreciated.

Being one of the few companies handling Pharma, Life science & Healthcare shipments successfully, DACHSER India’s achievement of IATA CEIV certification have given an uplift to the business by building confidence and secure feeling for all the customers to connect with DACHSER, said Anil Yadav, National Sales Manager India ASL.

Fundamental measures to cope with the current Covid-19 situation

After numerous countries have imposed restrictions on public life and some have closed their borders (currently for passenger transport), we are confronted with a number of challenges as a result of the current corona situation. Due to accompanying restrictions to contain the spread of the virus, DACHSER is faced with delivery restrictions in regions or recipient groups (e.g.: catering and retail trade with the exception of essential goods). We are therefore dependent on the support of our customers.

We ask our customers only to hand over consignments for transport where it can be guaranteed that the goods will be accepted by the recipient. If we are unable to deliver consignments due to restrictions in the destination area or closure of a business, we will return consignments already accepted for a fee so that they can be returned to the sender's care as quickly as possible.  Further shipments to these areas or to final recipients will then no longer be accepted. This serves to avoid idle times and thus damage risks in the interest of all.

Of course we also offer individual possibilities of interim storage in contract logistics if required. For the reservation of storage capacities we ask our customers to contact us. We regret the inconvenience this may cause, but we consider it our duty to point out possible scenarios.

Our teams worldwide will stay in contact with our customers. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to get in touch with your contact at the relevant DACHSER branch to discuss your particular situation and make further arrangements for your freight shipments.

All news on the current situation can be found on our respective DACHSER country websites.
