One Hub. OneMission. One community. Pharma Process at FRA
In the new pharmaceutical film from the Air Cargo Community Frankfurt, we follow the journey of temperature-sensitive medications – from development in the laboratory to transport to the airport and handover to the airline. The film impressively demonstrates how closely the players at the Frankfurt location work together to ensure the highest quality and safety standards in pharmaceutical air freight.
From temperature-controlled halls to adjustable containers and transport service providers – the players provide insights into their role along the supply chain and illustrate why Frankfurt is one of the world's leading pharmaceutical hubs.
The production of the film was only possible thanks to the dedicated participation of numerous members of our community. We sincerely thank everyone involved for their time, openness, and strong support of this joint project!
Share the film—and our enthusiasm! Feel free to use it on your channels and show what moves us together.
