As one of the world's leading manufacturers and exporters of pharmaceutical 
products as well as home to the National Institute for Bioprocessing Research 
and Training (NIBRT), Ireland has attracted a broad range of life science 
companies. All the world's top 10 pharmaceutical companies have set up 
operations in Ireland, and the country is expected to continue seeing growth in 
businesses related to pharmaceuticals.

The recently GDP-certified NX Ireland Contract Logistics Center is located 
approximately 3 km from Dublin International Airport and 12 km from Dublin 
Port, making it an ideal site for both air and sea transport. The facility is 
equipped with a temperature-controlled facility (2,509 m2) that can accommodate 
two temperature ranges -- refrigerated storage from 2 C to 8 C and 
constant-temperature storage from 15 C to 25 C -- and provides a safe and 
high-quality pharmaceutical logistics platform by combining the NX Group's 
international temperature-controlled transport services with temporary storage 
capabilities in a GDP-certified warehouse.

The NX Group will continue strengthening its efforts in the pharmaceutical 
industry, which is positioned as a priority industry in the Group's current 
business plan, as well as expanding and developing its services globally to 
meet increasingly sophisticated and diverse pharmaceutical logistics needs.
