Taiwan has been striving to strengthen quality control for pharmaceuticals, and accordingly mandated at the end of 2018 that pharmaceutical manufacturers and sales companies licensed to produce pharmaceuticals acquire GDP certification.

The GDP certification recently acquired by NE Taiwan encompasses transport within Taiwan of import air cargo arriving at Taoyuan International Airport. This transport is available in three temperature ranges: -20℃ to -0℃, 2℃ to 8℃ and 15℃ to 25℃.

NE Taiwan has submitted an application to obtain GDP/GMP certification from the Taiwan Food and Drug Administration (TFDA) by year's end for storage operations at the Taoyuan NEXT3 Warehouse newly opened this past May, and it will continue endeavoring to improve its quality and enhance its services to meet anticipated growing demand for pharmaceutical logistics.
