CLO Marken Opens Warehouse Complex-Operations Center In Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

05/07/2015
Marken, a Clinical Logistics Organization, opened its newest operations office and warehouse complex in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The hub is the newest addition to Marken's global drug distribution network, designed to enable the distribution of clinical trial supplies within all temperature ranges for clients with manufacturing or packaging facilities in Pennsylvania and New Jersey.

"The new Philadelphia location is an excellent addition to our worldwide network of depots and logistics facilities. It will provide easy access to our local clients and enhance our global drug distribution services by offering clients a full service staging and distribution solution in Philadelphia," says Mark Hembarsky, Marken's Vice President of Logistics for North America.

According to the company, dedicated features of this new 8865 square foot facility include a large 15 to 25 degrees C controlled room temperature area, a 2 to 8 degrees C walk in refrigerator and a -20 degrees C freezer. The rooms are equipped with a 24/7 temperature monitoring system, fully mapped and calibrated.

"The facility has been built to Marken's exact specifications and will be operated under strict security with constant temperature controls. This new hub will operate like all Marken facilities, using Maestro for shipment bookings and tracking worldwide," he added.
