Marken has opened its GDP-compliant operations center in Zurich, Switzerland, to support local pharmaceutical companies with growing clinical development programs.
The new location, within close proximity to the Zürich Airport (Kloten) freight terminal, is strategically located near major Swiss highways. The facility operates 24/7/365, and includes office and warehouse space with refrigerators and freezers available for temperature controlled packaging, full security and is connected to Marken's global 'Maestro' operating system. The operation will be capable of collecting and shipping clinical drug product from the Zurich gateway to anywhere in the world.
Wes Wheeler, chief executive officer for Marken, said, "Marken has built a global logistics network specifically designed to meet the needs of the global pharmaceutical industry. Our newest site in Zurich replaces our smaller office with expanded capabilities so that we can be ready for the increased clinical logistics demands from our clients. We have also set the standard for GDP compliance – especially in Europe - and will certify the operations according to our own 'Gold Book' standard."
