Dear customer / business partner
Winter is just around the corner. In FREJA we may look back at a year 2017 as a year where we through new initiatives have come one step closer to our goal of being a full-service-provider.We have started up a seafreight department so that we are now full provider of all means of transportation and we have received our GMP permission in Taastrup allowing us to perform secondary repackaging and labelling of pharmaceuticals.
On group level we have strengthened the organization by employment of a new managing director and a new sales- and marketing director in our Swedish sister company and as a whole FREJA is well prepared to accept the assignments which our customers will offer to us in 2018.FREJAs founder Jørgen Hansen celebrated his 40 years anniversary in the transport business in August 2017 and FREJA as such turned 32 years in April 2017.
The holidays in connection with Christmas and New Year means that we will have to change the dates of departure on some destinations. That is also something to read about in one of the articles.On behalf of FREJA I wish you will enjoy reading this newsletter.

FREJA achieves GMP permission
In October, FREJA reached an important goal in our strategic focus on Pharma Logistics as we obtained our GMP (Good Manufacturing Practice) permit in Denmark. The permit allows FREJA to perform secondary repackaging and labelling of pharmaceuticals, as well as for pharmaceuticals for clinical trials.
Since we obtained our GDP (Good Distribution Practice) permit in the beginning of 2016 things have moved quickly - both in terms of attracting new customers and in terms of developing services together with our customers.
In FREJA we have worked determinedly to be able to offer also this service to customers in the Pharma segment and we are pleased that we are now able to offer repacking of pharmaceutical products. For example, this involves replacement of a patient information leaflet, labelling of a packaging, replacement of exterior packaging, inspection of special products, etc. Furthermore, FREJA offers to do shrink wrap in sales bundles in a GDP approved warehouse - the possibilities are many.
“With this service, FREJA has a more complete range of services to offer the market and it gives obvious advantages to our customers that we are able to offer all services under the same roof. It reduces production time and movement of goods; meaning a quicker availability of the reworked products,” says Marina Steensen, Group Healthcare Logistics Director in FREJA.
For further information about FREJA’s services in Pharma logistics, please contact Marina Steensen.

FREJA establishes sea freight department
Even more focus on sea- and airfreight creates new possibilities for FREJA’s customers
In FREJA Transport & Logistics A/S we experience that our customers to a larger extend would require assistance in regards to consignments moving by sea- or airfreight. Previously this year we started up an airfreight division and time has now come to start up a sea freight division as well.
To be responsible for this area, we have employed Martin Kring as Ocean Freight Manager by 1st November 2017. Martin has been working with sea freight for the past 15 years and therefore brings with him a large experience in this area.
The employment of Martin Kring supports FREJA’s ambition of being a full service provider with the possibility of offering our customers all sorts of transport and logistics solutions they may need. In close cooperation with our Global Forwarding group Martin will be responsible for the development of FREJA’s services within overseas and third party consignments.
If you need assistance with your sea- or airfreight consignments please contact our qualified team.
