Pharmaceutical warehouse in Panama with a GDP-aligned cold chain
Interworld Freight runs a pharmaceutical warehouse in Panama aligned with Good Distribution Practices (GDP), with cold-chain zones and re-export from the Zona Libre de Colón across LATAM and the Caribbean. Compliance with the Ministerio de Salud and DGA is built into every SKU flow. It sits near the Panama Canal, Tocumen International Airport (PTY) and the ports of Balboa (PSA), Cristóbal, Manzanillo (MIT) and CCT, with full GDP alignment and end-to-end traceability across the Americas.
Trained staff handle serialization, lot and batch tracking, expiry control and audit logs, following WHO guidelines and the Ministerio de Salud requirements for storing and distributing pharmaceutical products. Zones at 2–8 °C (36–46 °F) and 15–25 °C (59–77 °F) run with 24/7 monitoring, automatic alerts and backup power, and cleanrooms and humidity control are available on demand. The result is a reliable local partner for cold-chain pharma logistics between Asia, North America and LATAM.
