Pelican BioThermal opens Frankfurt facility

Minnesota-based, temperature-controlled packing company Pelican BioThermal has opened a new facility in Frankfurt, expanding the service network of its “Crēdo on Demand” program, which offers its reusable parcel shipping containers to shippers on a rental basis.

The new location will be in close proximity to Frankfurt Airport (FRA), making the company’s line of temperature-controlled packaging available to clients operating out of the prominent cargo hub.

The company’s network of service centers and pick-up/drop-off points is mostly concentrated in the United States and Western Europe, but has expanded to locations in Latin America and Eurasia with locations Singapore, Sao Paulo and most recently, Tokyo. The addition of Frankfurt will cater largely to customers involved in the transport of pharmaceuticals, a major export of the region.
