Market Trends of Europe Pharmaceutical Logistics Industry

Biopharma Sales in Europe is Increasing

Europe is the second-biggest biopharmaceuticals market in the world. The increasing populace and persistent sicknesses are boosting market development. The reception and openness, accessibility of biopharmaceuticals for treating and concluding illnesses, and mindfulness connected with medication have boosted the European market. To ensure the availability of secure and affordable medicines throughout the region for patients and to support the European pharmaceutical industry's ability to remain an innovator and a world leader, the European Commission established a public consultation on its proposed European drug strategy.

Pharmaceutical manufacturers increasingly focus on product quality and sensitivity. Factors such as the development of complex biological-based medicines and shipments of hormone treatments, vaccines, and complex proteins require specific results that require specialized transportation and warehousing. Temperature-controlled logistics of pharmaceutical products and medical devices is a part of the healthcare logistics industry. Moreover, the increase in the need for effective cold-chain logistics services to maintain the quality of goods fuels the growth of the pharmaceutical logistics market.

Cold chain supply chains and logistics for the pharmaceutical industry are evolving to be more strategic and reliable. High-value pharmaceutical products are mainly shipped via cold chain solutions across the entire distribution network, thus driving the market's growth.
