DHL Supply Chain is acquiring SDS Rx, a U.S.-based provider of final-mile delivery and specialized transportation services for long-term care and specialty pharmacies, radiopharmacies and health system networks.
The deal will expand DHL’s healthcare logistics capabilities, especially in time-critical and same-day delivery services for life sciences and healthcare sectors, according to a Sept. 9 news release from the company.
The acquisition will also enhance DHL’s reach in specialty pharmacy services, which now account for around half of total prescription drug spending in the U.S., the release said.
SDS Rx’s operations will be integrated into DHL Supply Chain North America’s life sciences and healthcare division.
