“ Marken and Sanofi have a vital role in the storage and distribution of groundbreaking medicines that have the potential to cure diseases , and not just treat them ”
ARIETTE VAN STRIEN PRESIDENT , MARKEN
Once the drugs are ready , they ’ re shipped to warehouses or distribution centres , fromwhere they are distributed to healthcare providers , pharmacies , and hospitals .
For other medicines , such as vaccines and biologics ( drugs produced using a livingsystem , such as a micro-organism , plant cell , or animal cell ) a controlled supply chain is required , to keep such volatile medicines at the right temperature and humidity , and with tracking shipments to prevent counterfeiting and diversion . Both small- and large-molecule pharma supply chains are temperature controlled and time sensitive .
