Johnson & Johnson MedTech KSA (J&J MedTech KSA) has signed an agreement with Tamer Logistics to become its third-party logistics provider in Saudi Arabia.

The agreement comes as part of J&J MedTech KSA’s strategic plan of transforming its go-to-market model which involves establishing direct operations in the kingdom within 2024.

With J&J MedTech KSA set to enhance the provision of cutting-edge medical solutions to its customers, the company has long-term goals that are in line with Saudi Arabia’s 2030 vision of fulfilling healthcare priorities that include the integration of technology-driven solutions and consistent delivery of care to its ever-growing population.
