Hellmann Calipar Healthcare Logistics (HCHL) has opened a new distribution facility in Dubai South’s Logistics District, expanding its UAE presence to five centers and enhancing one of the Middle East’s most comprehensive dedicated healthcare logistics networks.
Hellmann is responding to the growing demand for resilient healthcare supply chains, as regulatory requirements tighten and the handling of temperature-sensitive medical products demands greater precision and transparency across the entire logistics chain.
The new facility in Dubai South’s Logistics District expands HCHL’s warehouse capacity while offering enhanced customer-specific services and storage solutions. It is designed to meet key market needs, including compliant management of time- and temperature-sensitive healthcare products, secure handling of hazardous goods, end-to-end digital transparency, and efficient last-mile distribution.
Built to meet national and international safety and environmental standards, the facility features a dedicated chamber for hazardous goods and incorporates solar technology in line with Hellmann’s sustainability goals.
The expansion integrates advanced infrastructure, quality management systems aligned with international GDP standards, and reinforced security protocols to safeguard product integrity from origin to patient.
Dubai South’s Logistics District represents the pinnacle of logistical innovation, offering seamless services and operations with direct access to Jebel Ali Port via a bonded logistics corridor. The district includes multiple zones with direct links to Al Maktoum International Airport cargo terminals, EZDubai, a dedicated e-commerce free zone, and a Contract Logistics Zone.
