The rising demand for outsourcing pharmaceutical warehouse service
Pharmaceutical manufacturing companies across the world are expanding their production capacities and operations. The increase in the supply chain management complexity for pharmaceutical companies resulted in manufacturers outsourcing part of their SCM functions to warehouse and storage service providers. One of the services in demand is high-pressure processing post-packaging and non-thermal pasteurization methods for killing micro-organisms. This process enables companies to transport pharma products safely.
