Bolloré Logistics is gearing up with the various stakeholders for the upcoming distribution of Covid-19 vaccines in low- and middle-income countries. The company is particularly committed to providing the appropriate distribution solutions from vaccine production and distribution centres around the world to the destination medical centres, through a global network of assets and partners able to meet the required standards in terms of the cold chain, Good Distribution Practices (GDPs), security and ethics.

A panel of solutions for inland distribution is available to cover the entire supply chain:
• Customs clearance and in-country logistics
• Last-mile distribution organised with fleets of reefer and real-time geolocated trucks operated by certified, audited and trained partners complying with GDPs
• A network of distribution centres with temperature-controlled storage spaces, dedicated spaces in airport areas and specific packaging solutions
• Dedicated control towers for monitoring and managing the shipments with the use of IoT sensors.
In Africa more specifically, Bolloré Logistics is present in 48 countries and operates the leading integrated logistics network. Thanks to its unique footprint and dedicated teams, the company is able to ensure deliveries to the most remote areas on the continent via secure corridors.

“Bolloré Logistics is the partner of many international organisations, providing them with end-to-end solutions. In the context of the Covid-19 pandemic, we are fully mobilised to help distribute vaccines all over the world thanks to our global network and supply-chain expertise,” said Eric Sanchez, Senior VP Global Development.
