The Imperial Logistics group is investing in a new, multimillion-rand warehouse and additional office space for Imperial Health Sciences at its Centurion head office.
Imperial Health Sciences managing director Lara Haigh pointed out that the business needed additional capacity following its diversification into the pharmaceutical wholesale, medical devices and animal health markets.
The expansion will enable Imperial’s Pharmed pharmaceutical wholesale and distribution business to move into the Centurion facility.
Pharmed – which specialises in the wholesale supply and distribution of healthcare-related products – is set to move into the new premises by June 2018.
The expansion project includes the construction of a new, 41 000-sqm warehouse with 30 280 bulk storage positions, 4 550 high risk locations, 1 350 cold storage locations for cold chain products and 4 000 positions for Schedule 6 medicines.
