“ When we first started as an organization in the supply chain space , we opened what we referred to as logistics centers , which were strictly to support the transportation related elements of this highvalue material . As we ’ ve continued to mature , we realized that we needed to have a more comprehensive supply chain platform . As such , we have upgraded three facilities from logistics centers to global supply chain centers , with space for cryopreservation storage fulfilment , secondary labelling , and packaging , alongside facilitating the delivery of our historical transportation services .
“ The way we approach the market ,” Mark continues , “ is from a very different standpoint to an organization operating in the lowvalue , high-volume products space , where there is an acceptable loss tolerance . Those systems and processes don ’ t work for cell and gene therapies because the biological material is often irreplaceable and very valuable . As such , we approach the market with a much higher quality and regulatory standard related to the management of the equipment , systems , and processes around transportation . Over the years , as we ’ ve worked with increasing customer numbers , our product centric environment and customer service performance have resonated with our partners , leading to extremely positive referral and repeat business . In a matter of five years , we ’ ve
gone from an almost zero percent market share to about 70 percent market share of the cell and gene clinical trial market , which is pretty exciting ,” he enthuses .
“ We ’ re the gold standard from a supply chain standpoint , and we want to continue to be the partner of choice for our clients , enabling them to focus on advancing the life sciences industry . Our mission is to support life and health by providing reliable and comprehensive temperaturecontrolled supply chain solutions for the sector through our advanced technologies and dedicated personnel ,” he concludes . “ We want to provide support to both our historical and new clients and continue to diversify our service offering to drive continued growth .” ■
