SCI Launches New Healthcare Facility in Mississauga
TORONTO, Feb. 5, 2019 /PRNewswire/ - SCI (www.sci.ca), a leading Canadian 3PL logistics company, has announced the launch of its new healthcare-dedicated facility in Mississauga, Ontario, Canada.
The 150,000-ft2 fully-licensed distribution centre (DC) represents SCI's latest investment in healthcare logistics aimed at helping over-the-counter healthcare product and medical device companies manage their omni-channel supply chains within Canada. This latest facility increases SCI's overall footprint to over 4 million square feet across Canada with a total of 30 distribution centres.
The multi-client DC is equipped with state-of-the-art technology for storing temperature-sensitive healthcare products such as drugs and natural health products; as well as offering a high throughput automated order-to-kit operation designed for the OTC and Consumer Packaged Goods industries. In addition, SCI can provide distribution services, warehouse management, transportation management and late-stage customization solutions such as labeling, product kitting and configuration, and repackaging.
This new distribution centre will be managed under SCI's Quality Management System, which operates rigid process controls through all areas of the supply chain. This ensures healthcare clients will effectively comply with Canadian regulatory standards and safety protocols. Sensitivity and security of the customer product and reputation are paramount to SCI.
"This announcement demonstrates SCI's continued investment in the integrated healthcare network. Our goal is to help manufacturers lower costs, streamline inventory, and meet increasing demands posed by ecommerce, trading partners and Health Canada" says Peter Tostevin, Vice President Healthcare, SCI. "This investment comes on the heels of a year of significant growth in our healthcare logistics division."

"This is a continuation of our strategy to invest in leading technology, resources and infrastructure to support client growth."
