DHL has made plans to expand the service across the temperature regimes, along with offering value-added repack and postponement services.

Over the coming months, the company’s new logistics centre is expected to generate up to 50 job opportunities.

The new site, with an area of 40,000ft2 of warehousing space, will offer improved logistics solution for pharmaceutical companies based in the country.

Separated into varied temperature regimes, the new facility provides a wide range of storage environments, such as ambient (15oC to 25oC), chill (2o to 8o), and a blast and holding freezer capable of temperatures of -20oC.
