[Apr 08, 2015] Swissport Brussels is first station worldwide to receive IATA¡¯s new CEIV pharma certification
Swissport
International Ltd., the world¡¯s leading provider of ground and cargo handling
services to the aviation industry, is proud to announce that its station
Swissport Cargo in Brussels has successfully completed the validation process
for IATA¡¯s ¡°Center of Excellence for Independent Validators¡± (CEIV) on
Pharmaceutical Logistics. The certificate was handed over to Swissport at the
World Cargo Symposium in Shanghai in March 2015.
In 2014, IATA
established the Center of Excellence for Independent Validators (CEIV) on
Pharmaceutical Logistics in close cooperation with the pharmaceutical industry,
regulators and industry stakeholders. The certification aims at helping
airlines, handlers and forwarders improve their share of the $60 billion a year
pharmaceutical logistics market. The program, which includes implementation
planning, on-site assessment, training and validation, marks a new standard in
the pharmaceutical logistics industry and raises the benchmark for compliance
with industry regulation. Swissport Cargo Brussels is among the first handling
agents worldwide and the first Swissport Cargo station to successfully complete
the new certification process.
The pharmaceutical logistics market is the
most regulated and fragile cargo business in the world. As a consequence, the
CEIV certification program comprises numerous modules focusing on equipment
requirements, storage facilities, pharmaceutical handling procedures and
internal pharmaceutical handling know-how. By being compliant with these modules
and the strict requirements of IATA¡¯s new industry standard, Swissport Brussels
is in a position to meet the high standards set by the pharmaceutical industry
and legislators globally.
¡°We are proud that Swissport Cargo Brussels has
successfully completed IATA¡¯s new CEIV pharma certification process. This is an
important milestone in the joint project led by the Brussels Airport Company to
strengthen the location as a major logistical platform for the pharmaceutical
industry¡±, said Daniel Setz, Senior Vice President and Head of Global Cargo
Operations at Swissport. ¡°This further enhancement of our quality service
offering goes in line with our constant product development to respond to the
need of our customers. The know-how and competence learned in Brussels will
support the further roll-out of our quality pharma handling products within our
network.¡±
