The ‘Cold chain equipment and dry store temperature mapping tool’ is a tool for mapping temperatures in various types of cold chain equipment and dry stores and is available in official United Nations (UN) languages. Version 10.0 was released in January 2026 and includes various performance improvem...
Here is something we rarely say out loud in our sector.
Every time we pull a pharmacist or a logistician out of their facility for a classroom training, the pharmacy or the supply chain behind them doesn't pause. The stockouts don't wait. The cold chain doesn't care about the workshop schedule.
