UPS expands global healthcare network in Asia Pacific region

Hangzhou, Shanghai, and Sydney facilities grow UPS healthcare space in Asia Pacific by nearly 35,000 square meters.

UPS announced a significant expansion of its global healthcare distribution facility network in the Asia Pacific region with the opening of three new state-of-the-art facilities in Hangzhou, China, Shanghai, China, and Sydney, Australia. The new facilities bring the total number of UPS dedicated healthcare facilities around the globe to 36, encompassing more than one-half million square meters of space. They are part of UPS’s strategy to invest in its global healthcare network to meet the growing needs of its global healthcare customers.

Driven by trends of increased globalization and growing healthcare consumption in emerging markets, the new facilities, together with UPS’s existing healthcare facility in Singapore, which opened in 2011, serve both multinational and regional healthcare manufacturers’ distribution needs across the Asia Pacific region. The new facilities represent nearly 35,000 square meters of healthcare-compliant distribution space and are specially designed to meet the needs of pharmaceutical, biotech, and medical device companies.

“Asia is our fastest-growing market for healthcare and we are seeing increased activity in the region, especially in China, where a growing demand for acute and chronic care has driven the need for reliable, flexible, and compliant supply chains to serve a highly dynamic market,” says Bill Hook, vice president, global strategy, UPS Healthcare Logistics.  “Healthcare is a major focus area for UPS, and we are committed to continuing investments in Asia and other parts of the world timed with—and often ahead of—market demand to support our clients’ growth strategies in key regions.”
