UPS announced today that three of its freight forwarding operations located at Narita International Airport and Kansai International Airport in Japan, and Incheon International Airport in South Korea, have received the prestigious IATA CEIV Pharma Certification for excellence in pharmaceutical air transportation and handling.

Together with its freight forwarding operations at Changi International Airport in Singapore that achieved certification in 2019, four of UPS’s freight forwarding operations are now internationally recognised as able to handle and transport high-value pharmaceutical products safely, securely, and efficiently.

The certification also validates UPS Healthcare Cold Chain Freight service offering at the four locations as being aligned to global best practices.
