GAC branches into baby cord logistics

LOGISTICS          GAC

Global - GAC Jordan launched a specialist service in partnership with BabyCord Jordan to package umbilical cord blood for delivery and storage to medical institutions and hospitals.

Research has shown that stem cells found in umbilical cord blood represent building blocks for the immune system and can be used to deal with a range of medical conditions, including cancer and leukemia.

"This highly specialised and sophisticated service requires expert technicians, 24/7 customer service as well as regular follow up and coordination with mothers as well as hospitals in Jordan and overseas before and after the baby's delivery," said logistics manager Amjad Nasser.

GAC said its technical staff will be at the hospital on the day the baby is delivered to handle the pacing of the baby cord samples and documentation. The package is then dispatched immediately via special express service to Europe or North America, where the sample will be processed and stored in state-of-the-art facilities under strict guidelines for up to 20 years.
