26 February 2025, Cambridge, UK – Today, Biocair, an established global leader in life science logistics, announced the expansion of its operations with the opening of a new office in Chengdu, Sichuan Province, China. This marks the opening of the company’s eighth office in the APAC region, solidifying its presence within the area and its position as a leading global logistics provider. Biocair first established a foothold within the APAC region in 2009, with the opening of its Shanghai office.
Strategically located close by Chengdu Shuangliu International Airport, the new office will improve operational capacity by expanding Biocair’s capabilities within Western China. Biocair’s dedicated Chengdu team of logistics experts will be able to provide comprehensive knowledge of the local customer base, transport network, and import/export customs regulations, as well as be on hand to strengthen Biocair’s business development activities within the region.
“From an operational standpoint, this new office in Chengdu will be highly beneficial for our existing clients in Western China and for those seeking to ship goods to the region”, Kevin Xu, APAC General Manager.
The new warehouse in Chengdu will provide additional import, export, pickup and delivery options for customers in Western China, and will extend Biocair’s services for items requiring cold-chain logistics. The new Chengdu warehouse will have a new freezer, fridge and incubator for the conditioning of +15°C to +25°C panels and will be able to handle packages requiring dry ice, +2°C to +8°C, +15°C to +25°C, and -20°C temperature controls.
This new office will enable Biocair to expand its operations and internal team within the APAC region, with the aim to further expand warehouse capacity in Western China in the coming years. Biocair is committed to investing in its global network in order to provide complete end-to-end logistics solutions as part of its global growth strategy.
