At CEVA Logistics, we have identified digitalization as a cornerstone of our strategic turnaround and transformation plan

To strengthen its foothold, CEVA nurtures strategic partnerships with leading industry players. Its strategic partnership with French container transportation and shipping company CMA CGM, for instance, seeks to generate new commercial opportunities in the short and long term. Projects in the pipeline include improved e-freight services, a new data analytics department and an end-to-end supply chain management development. The partnership was further broadened last year when CEVA started to look for the acquisition of CMA CGM’s freight management business. This is due to be completed in spring this year.

CEVA is reinforcing its position by continually investing globally such as in China and the rest of Asia as it taps markets in Myanmar, Cambodia and Bangladesh. Recently, the company has developed CEVA FORPATIENTS, which offers end-to-end logistics solutions for healthcare and pharmaceutical companies, placing patients at the center of the supply chain. “Our customers supply the vaccines, medical devices, medication and other support products on which patients around the world depend. For example, diabetic patients should not have to worry about supply chain reliability for their insulin. At CEVA, we’re expanding our temperature-sensitive solutions to ensure that, no matter the logistics challenges faced, patients’ needs are met. Behind every shipment, we see a patient,” says Niels Van Namen, EVP of CEVA’s Global Healthcare Sector.

“The global healthcare market has seen enormous change over the last year as a result of the pandemic that continues to affect daily life. The pandemic is also combining with the advance of technology and at-home treatment to usher in a new era of healthcare. As an agile logistics provider, CEVA will continue to offer new healthcare logistics solutions for our customers, and ultimately their patients. Today’s new FORPATIENTS sub-brand confirms our commitment as a responsive and reliable supply chain for better patient outcomes,” informs Friedberg.
