Good Distribution in Practice
Mach 2 Shipping Ltd was established in 1985 serving it’s general cargo, banking and pharmaceutical clientele. Whilst still handling general cargo, the company moved more into specialising in temperature controlled pharmaceutical movements and in 2001 founded Pharmafreight, a global group of independent specialist freight providers working in the pharmaceutical and life sciences sectors, all working to the same Quality standard, Good Distribution Practice (EU 2013/C 343/01). As the founders and UK representative of Pharmafreight and MHRA licence holders “Mach 2 Pharmafreight” offers the latest innovative solutions to its clients in pharma and healthcare logistics, on a world stage.
With the UK voting to leave the EU, the directors of Mach 2 Shipping took the step in late 2019 to establish Mach 2 Pharmafreight B.V. in the Netherlands to allow its clientele to have options of EU mainland services mirroring those already offered by the company in the UK.
