DKV and ABB Collaborate on EV Charging Solutions
19. March 2024The logistics service provider Movianto, specialized in the pharmaceutical and healthcare sector, and TVM Animal Health, the German subsidiary of the French veterinary medicine manufacturer Dômes Pharma, have extended their collaboration for another three years. Movianto has been supporting TVM Animal Health since its market entry in Germany.
(Ginsheim-Gustavsburg/Berlin) “Movianto has successfully supported us since 2021 in our entry into the German market. They have taken care of the entire warehousing logistics from storage with quality control to the pick and pack of shipping orders and also organized the delivery to veterinarians in Germany and Austria,” says Paul Thiou, Managing Director of Berlin-based TVM GmbH. “Now we are entering the second phase of our development and will continuously expand our portfolio and quantities.” Thiou plans to double the shipping volume, which currently includes up to 14,000 packages per month, in the coming years. So far, TVM has primarily marketed products in the ambient range (15 to 25 degrees Celsius) in Germany. Now, additional temperature-sensitive products are being added. Thiou: “This also includes stem cell products, where not only correct cooling at 2 to 8 degrees is crucial, but which are also time-sensitive.”
For Dennis Spamer, Managing Director of Movianto for Germany, Austria, and Switzerland (DACH), the development of TVM confirms a clear trend in the pharmaceutical and healthcare sector: “The demand for temperature-controlled logistics, especially in the cooling sector, is growing significantly. To offer sufficient capacity for this, we have expanded the cooling storage capacity at our German locations to more than 8,000 pallet spaces in recent years. And the next expansion phase is already planned.” For smaller shipments, Movianto also utilizes the option of storing them in validated refrigerators. This is also the case in Ginsheim-Gustavsburg, where all TVM products are stored in both ambient and cooling areas.
According to Spamer, there have been numerous special features in the collaboration with TVM. For instance, the Movianto Managing Director reports that at the request of TVM recipients, the filling material of the packages was changed. “Many veterinarians had reported back to TVM that they would prefer recycling paper as filling material for their orders instead of bubble wrap, as it is easier to dispose of and more environmentally friendly. We then made suggestions to TVM and ultimately modified a packing line accordingly.”
Animal Products Donated and Delivered to Ukraine
Last year, a special order stood out from the normal deliveries: “TVM donated products for Ukraine, and we organized the logistics for this delivery.” Last but not least, the regular review meetings with the client were very gratifying. “We agreed on specific quality metrics with the client. And in the last 20 months, we have continuously exceeded these KPIs.”
