Over 55,000 kg's of life saving antiretroviral drugs. Final destination: halfway across the world. The size of the consignment and need for product integrity over such a long distance was an ask that a number of carriers turned down. We partnered with Etihad Cargo to deliver these drugs from Hyderabad to São Paulo in just one vessel. Because with the right partners and compliance, there is no ask too big.

Leveraging Etihad Cargo’s IATA CEIV certification for pharmaceutical logistics and capability to facilitate temperature sensitive shipments within the +25⁰C and -80⁰C range, coupled with our CEIV and GDP compliance, we maintained strict controls through out the journey, successfully delivering the shipment on behalf of one of India’s leading pharmaceutical manufacturer.

With the shipment’s integrity our priority, we handed the consignment to Etihad Cargo in Hyderabad, with the UAE’s national carrier transiting the shipment through Abu Dhabi International Airport and Milan’s Malpensa International Airport en-route to São Paulo. Etihad Cargo and our team collaborated to ensure data tracking and real-time status monitoring throughout the journey, hence ensuring a seamless delivery, regardless of the complexities involved. That’s why we say, at EFL, there is no ask too big.
