    The research and advisory firm IMARC Group finds that the total market for healthcare cold chain logistics services in the Asia Pacific region is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 12% during 2013-2017.

    Findings from the firm’s latest report entitled Global Healthcare Cold Chain Logistics Market Report & Forecast (2012-2017) suggests that excluding some of the developed economies such as Japan, Australia, and Singapore, most of the countries in the region still have an underdeveloped cold chain infrastructure, leaving a lot of room for future growth.

    According to an IMARC Group analyst, “The sales of biopharmaceuticals and vaccines in most of these markets are expected to expand rapidly during the forecast period. A number of Asia Pacific destinations such as India, China, Singapore and South Korea etc. are also emerging as major destinations for outsourcing clinical trials, drug manufacturing, and pathology testing. Driven by these factors, we expect the cold chain logistics market in the Asia Pacific region to account for nearly 30% of the global market by 2017.”

    This report has analyzed three aspects of the global healthcare cold chain logistics market.

    The first aspect involves quantification of the global market for temperature-sensitive healthcare products into three major classes and evaluation of current and future opportunities in each of these classes. The second aspect involves an in-depth understanding of the global healthcare cold chain distribution process and logistic requirements for various temperature-sensitive healthcare products. The third aspect involves quantification of the global healthcare cold chain logistic services market and a evaluation of its various segments.
