Saudi Arabian Logistics (SAL), a subsidiary of Saudi Arabian Airlines Corporation, launched the operations of its pharma facilities recently opened at the Dammam-based King Fahad International Airport’s Cargo Village.
The new warehouses will support the infrastructure of pharma and medical equipment handling facilities as per the international standards of the World Health Organization (WHO), the European Union Good Distribution Practice, and Saudi Food and Drug Authority (SFDA).
The facility expansion plan is being implemented as scheduled at selected sites within the Cargo Village at the Dammam Station, SAL said in a statement.
“We are creating the proper environment and developing the infrastructure needed for the current period, which has seen an increasing demand of pharma and medical equipment cargos during the COVID-19 pandemic,” Omar Hariri, SAL CEO, said.
Before expansion, the total area of the medical storage facilities stood at approximately 118 square meters but after expansion it reached approximately 542 square meters with an operational capacity of 14,000 tons a year.
The facilities can also be used for storing different types of medical cargos with very low temperatures below zero.
