Quality & GDP
GDP-aligned storage, handling, and transportation procedures that preserve product integrity from receipt through cross-border dispatch.
Good Distribution Practice (GDP) standards govern how pharmaceutical products are stored, handled, and transported to protect quality and integrity. McHade aligns warehousing, fulfillment, and cold-chain operations to GDP practices your QA team can document.
From climate-controlled storage and pick-and-pack fulfillment to 2–8°C cold-chain handling where required, operational controls are designed for regulatory scrutiny — not generic logistics.
GDP-aligned operations work alongside McHade DSCSA pedigree support and export documentation — each standard reinforces product integrity across the supply chain.
