To assist in Yusen’s foray in the pharmaceutical, biotech and healthcare sector - SeerPharma (Singapore) Pte Ltd partnered with Yusen Logistics (Singapore) Pte Ltd to successfully deliver a Good Distribution Practice training course for the Regional Contract Logistics team at one of Yusen’s
distribution centres in Malaysia.
The program was developed to support the team’s knowledge of Good Distribution Practice (GDP) in relation to Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP). The Good Distribution Practices training output enhanced the team’s ability to respond to customer requirements.
The take home messages included:
- How does GDP relate to GMP
- Clarifying the key elements for GDP
- How the controls appropriate for the storage, trade and distribution of materials impact the distribution of pharmaceutical products
“Great to have you on board for the GDP training and thank you for coming up to Kuala Lumpur (Malaysia)”
