KUEHNE+NAGEL EXPANDS HEALTHCARE FOOTPRINT IN NORTH AMERICA
April 5, 2023

Kuehne+Nagel has announced a new contract logistics fulfilment centre on the grounds of the Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport.

 

The new contract logistics fulfilment centre — which opened on April 1 — is located approximately three miles from the terminals.

 

Kuehne+Nagel said the 400,000 sq. ft fulfilment centre reflects the company's continued commitment to investing in the healthcare vertical by serving multiple customers.

 

It added that the "fully pharma-grade compliant, secure, high-tech site" allows Kuehne+Nagel's partners to be assured that fulfilment centre operations are at the highest levels of safety and efficiency.

 

This includes meeting the complex storage needs of customers in the healthcare and pharmaceutical worlds with features such as four cold chambers, which are able to store products within the various temperature ranges required by the healthcare industry, including frozen ones.

 

Healthcare, pharma logistics boost

 

"This move represents an important milestone for Kuehne+Nagel's Contract Logistics business in North America and reinforces the company's global commitment to the healthcare business as part of the company’s Roadmap 2026," said Eduardo Razuck, senior vice president of Contract Logistics Americas for Kuehne+Nagel.

 

"The investment in a new distribution centre in the Dallas/Fort Worth area is the latest step in growing our ever-expanding network focused on supporting our healthcare and pharmaceutical customers," he added.

 

Kuehne+Nagel said the new fulfilment centre would be part of the company's growing healthcare services offerings.

 

"This fulfilment centre will support our mission to bring product integrity to the next level for our healthcare customers that require premium services for moving their products," said Marcello Ferrari, vice president global head of Customer Development Healthcare, Contract Logistics for Kuehne+Nagel. 

 

"Our focus is on the patient, and with ease of access to the significant uplift capacity at the Dallas/Fort Worth Airport, we are able to serve better not just our customers but also patients across the country who depend on these products," Ferrari added.
