Challenge
A pharmaceutical manufacturer in Italy urgently required a shipment of high-value temperature-sensitive materials to reach its research facility in Ireland. Traditional freight options could not meet the strict time constraints or guarantee the secure, controlled conditions required for such a critical delivery. Any delay risked disrupting vital R&D testing schedules and causing significant financial and operational impact.
Solution
C4 Logistics immediately activated its Onboard Courier (OBC) network to provide a secure, hand-carried transport solution.
- Within hours, a dedicated courier was assigned and placed on the next available flight.
- Our operations team arranged pre-cleared customs documentation to eliminate bottlenecks during transit.
- The courier maintained constant supervision of the shipment, ensuring integrity and chain of custody throughout the journey.
Result
The consignment was personally delivered to the client’s laboratory within 12 hours, enabling testing to proceed on schedule and avoiding costly production delays.
The customer praised C4 Logistics for its speed, reliability, and precision, which demonstrated our capability in handling time-sensitive pharmaceutical logistics with absolute care and confidence.
