“Successful pharmaceutical distribution relies on a seamless and adaptable supply chain to meet market demand, ensuring timely access to medications for patients and the community,” stated Mrs. Endah.
Mr. Petrus Wahyu Utomo highlighted the necessity of standardization in the pharmaceutical distribution process to guarantee the safety, efficacy, and quality of health products. “Standardization, established by BPOM RI through Good Distribution Practices regulations, is fundamental in building customer trust and ensuring product safety and efficacy. AAM is committed to practicing Good Distribution Practice to provide the best service to the Indonesian public,” he added.
