Because it is always interesting to know the activity of the clients we work with. Satelix has decided to present to you each quarter a sector of activity in which the Satelix Logistique solution is already implemented. To begin with, we will focus on the pharmaceutical industries.
THE PHARMACEUTICAL INDUSTRIES: WHAT ARE THEY?
First, let’s try to define what the pharmaceutical industries are. In a few words, it is an economic sector that includes the activities of research, manufacture and marketing of medicines for human or veterinary medicine. This activity is carried out by pharmaceutical laboratories and biotechnology companies.
WHAT IS THE HISTORY OF THE PHARMACEUTICAL INDUSTRY?
The pharmaceutical industry began to develop in earnest in the 1950s, following a better understanding of the human body (in particular with DNA).
In ancient times, the pharmaceutical field was exclusively a botanical one. The development of the pharmaceutical industry took a major turn thanks to chemistry with the introduction of chemical molecules.
From the 19th century onwards, pharmacists pooled their production with the creation of cooperatives. In the middle of the 19th century, we witnessed a real mass production of medicines. Finally, the large pharmaceutical groups developed in the second half of the 20th century.
WHAT ROLE DO THESE PHARMACEUTICAL INDUSTRIES PLAY TODAY?
For the past two years, these pharmaceutical industries have not stopped making headlines, particularly with the vaccine for covid and the various medicines that have been used to treat winter ailments for the past few months, as well as daily treatments.
THE PLACE OF SATELIX AND ITS LOGISTICS SOLUTION:
