Why generic logistics fails healthcare
Medical supply chains carry requirements that standard freight simply wasn’t built for. Controlled substances need documented chain of custody. Biologics need unbroken cold storage. Expiry management isn’t optional — it’s regulatory. When a general logistics provider handles a pharmaceutical shipment as they would a box of consumer goods, the consequences range from compliance failures to patient harm.
Specialisation matters. SLDS’s team includes trained pharmaceutical handling staff, cold-chain technicians, and a compliance team familiar with both Myanmar’s Food and Drug Administration requirements and international GxP standards. This makes a difference not just on paper, but at every handoff point in the chain.
Three pillars of reliable medical delivery
Myanmar’s healthcare providers deserve a logistics partner who understands the stakes. Whether you’re a private hospital in Yangon managing complex pharmaceutical inventory, an NGO running a vaccination programme in Chin State, or a regional distributor looking for reliable downstream coverage — SLDS is built for your supply chain.
Cold chain integrity
Continuous temperature monitoring from warehouse to point of care, with automated alerts and backup protocols.
Last-mile reach
Route coverage extending to township-level clinics across Ayeyarwady, Sagaing, Shan, and beyond.
Regulatory compliance
Full documentation, chain of custody records, and MoHS-aligned handling procedures on every shipment.
